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: Contezolid is a new oxazolidinone antibacterial agent, and its pharmacokinetic (PK) characteristics and safety in super-elderly patients remain poorly understood. Methods: Contezolid PK parameters were analyzed in enrolled super-elderly patients (≥ 80 years), with systematic assessment of steady-state profiles and adverse events. Results: Thirteen super-elderly patients (mean age: 94.9 ± 4.8 years) were included in the study. The plasma concentrations of contezolid peaked at 2-3h post administration. Both C Conclusion: Contezolid has comparable PKs in super-elderly and healthy adults. While a dosage of 400 mg q12h is sufficient for pathogens with MICs ≤ 1 mg/L, a higher dosage of 800 mg q12h is recommended for higher MICs (2-4 mg/L), with both doses demonstrating favorable safety. Clinical Trial Registration Number: ChiCTR2200056377; 4/2/2022.
