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

Background: Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) is a life-threatening severe cutaneous adverse drug reaction with high mortality. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication of TEN, significantly increasing mortality risk. Immunocompromised patients frequently require combination therapy with voriconazole and co-trimoxazole for concurrent infections, which may lead to complex toxicities. Case Presentation: A 60-year-old male with nephrotic syndrome on long-term corticosteroids was diagnosed with Conclusion: Co-trimoxazole rechallenge strongly supports a causal link to TEN. AKI pathogenesis was multifactorial: primarily driven by TEN-associated systemic inflammation, with voriconazole accumulation due to CYP2C19 intermediate metabolism and drug interaction serving as a likely exacerbating co-factor. This case underscores the importance of therapeutic drug monitoring, pharmacogenetic testing, and integrated cross-organ surveillance when using high-risk antimicrobial combinations.
