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

Voriconazole, a broad-spectrum antifungal, exhibits significant interpatient variability in efficacy and safety. This study assessed the influence of genetic and nongenetic factors on its steady-state pharmacokinetics and adverse effects. In vitro studies characterized voriconazole metabolism. An ancillary analysis was conducted on data from a completed trial involving 61 healthy participants who received a loading dose of 400 mg twice daily on first day, followed by 200 mg twice daily for 8 days. On the third day of voriconazole treatment, plasma and urine samples were collected over a 12-hour period after dose administration. Multiple trough concentrations, adverse events, and laboratory values were recorded throughout the study. Voriconazole and its metabolites were quantified using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry methods. Genotyping for CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP3A4, and CYP3A5 variants was performed using TaqMan assays. In vitro, CYP2C19 predominantly catalyzed the formation of voriconazole N-oxide and methyl hydroxy voriconazole, whereas CYP3A4/5 catalyzed fluoropyrimidine ring hydroxylation.
