Survey of the utilization of genotype-guided tacrolimus management in United States solid organ transplant centers.
Article in Pharmacogenomics. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionGenotype-guided tacrolimus management is not routine in clinical practice despite the availability of Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium dosing guidelines. Prior surveys have evaluated patient and provider perspectives of pharmacogenetics (PGx) in transplant, but limited recent data exists on tacrolimus PGx implementation across United States transplant centers.
methodsAn electronic survey was distributed to transplant pharmacists regarding utilization of tacrolimus PGx, methods of implementing PGx, and barriers to clinical implementation. A survey response was requested for each organ program within the transplant center.
resultsA total of 90 programs from 69 transplant centers (28.1% of active U.S. transplant centers) responded to the survey. Tacrolimus PGx was utilized for patient care in 14 programs (15.6%). There was substantial variability in the implementation methods and application of tacrolimus PGx results among transplant programs. In programs that had not implemented tacrolimus PGx, common barriers for implementation included PGx testing cost and availability and lack of evidence for clinical utility.
conclusionImplementation of PGx guided tacrolimus in solid organ transplant centers remains limited with heterogeneity in the implementation approach. Additional research is needed to establish the clinical utility of PGx guided tacrolimus and education on reimbursement and testing resources may help to increase uptake.
