1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

This study examines the influence of single nucleotide polymorphisms in drug metabolizing enzymes CYP3A4, CYP3A5, and UGT1A4, and the transporter ABCB1 on tacrolimus dose requirements and blood trough level variability in the period immediately after liver transplantation. We analyzed genotypes for these genes in 61 adult liver transplant recipients who received tacrolimus and their respective donors. Significant findings include increased average daily deviation (ADD) from the therapeutic range in patients with: donor CYP3A4*22 GG (1.68 [1.01, 2.29] versus 0.68 [0.42, 1.46] ng/mL/day, p = 0.016), recipient ABCB1 rs2032582 CT/TT (2.07 [1.68, 2.39] versus 1.37 [0.76, 1.95] ng/mL/day , p = 0.013), and donor UGT1A4*3 TT (1.69 [1.02, 2.42] versus 1.33 [0.54, 1.79] ng/mL/day , p = 0.043). Additionally, higher tacrolimus concentration/weight-adjusted dose ratios [C
