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

Antifungal therapy for invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) can be challenging in cancer patients due to interpatient variability in pharmacokinetic properties of antifungals and potential drug-drug interactions (DDIs). This case report describes a 14-year-old boy with advanced osteosarcoma diagnosed with invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) after chemotherapy. Initial treatment of voriconazole showed poor improvement, as therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) revealed exceptionally low trough concentration (0.28 μg/mL) even after dose increase. When voriconazole was switched to isavuconazole, favorable antifungal response was observed with isavuconazole trough concentrations ranging from 2.43 μg/mL to 4.12 μg/mL. Moreover, TDM also detected no obvious pharmacokinetic DDI between isavuconazole and apatinib but potential DDI between voriconazole and anlotinib in this patient. This case highlights the importance of individualized pharmacokinetic considerations in antifungal therapy in cancer patients. TDM may be a useful aid for therapeutic regimen decision and optimization.
