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

In this paper aspects of the clinical pharmacokinetics of the antiretroviral agents zidovudine, didanosine and zalcitabine are reviewed. Special attention is paid to possibly altered pharmacokinetics in special circumstances, such as hepatic and renal dysfunction, pregnancy, stage of disease, etc. The dideoxynucleoside antiretroviral agents have some clinical pharmacokinetic properties in common (rapid absorption and elimination), but substantial differences exist in their degree of absorption, metabolism and penetration into the cerebrospinal fluid. All agents display wide interpatient variability in pharmacokinetic parameters. The relevance of therapeutic drug monitoring of antiretroviral agents is also discussed.
