Therapeutic drug monitoring-guided optimization of isavuconazole dose for ICU patients with refractory pulmonary aspergillosis: case report.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Isavuconazole (ISA) is recommended as the first-line therapy for pulmonary aspergillosis. In intensive care unit (ICU) patients, ISA exhibits enhanced clearance and a larger volume of distribution but lower plasma concentrations, indicating the need for plausible dose adjustment. However, current evidence regarding off-label ISA dosing regimens for ICU patients is restricted to pharmacokinetic prediction modeling, with no published clinical studies available to date. In this case, a prolonged ISA-loading dosing regimen was applied to address previous standard ISA treatment failures; thereby, pharmacokinetic steady state was achieved with serial therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM)-guided dose optimization. This study illustrated a favorable clinical course associated with TDM-guided dosing adjustment, with no severe adverse reactions. Given the limited sample size, it is critical to investigate the clinical scenario further to adequately provide references for ISA dosing guidelines and TDM strategies for ICU practice.
