Review in Drug safety, 2000. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.

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

Therapeutic ineffectiveness is a frequent drug-related problem that can occur in a variety of different situations and be caused by different mechanisms. Examples are inappropriate use, interactions or metabolic abnormalities. Observations in patients of unexpected ineffectiveness can provide important information with regard to such situations. Therefore, ineffectiveness--especially when unexpected or unexplained--is a potentially important reportable event in pharmacovigilance. The terms regarding ineffectiveness in the WHO Adverse Reaction Terminology (WHOART) have been recently revised in order to enable optimal coding of such case reports.
