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

Selective inhibitors of the cyclooxygenase-2 enzyme were developed to treat pain and inflammation while reducing the risk of the serious gastrointestinal side effects seen with nonselective nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). The results of several clinical trials have demonstrated an apparent increased risk of serious cardiovascular events in patients taking the COX-2-selective inhibitors. Although the risk was observed originally with trials conducted with rofecoxib, it was attributed generally to the entire class of COX-2-selective drugs based on a similar mechanism of action and a hypothesis that predicted the possibility of a prothrombotic effect of the drugs compared with nonselective NSAIDs. Subsequent studies have demonstrated that elevated cardiovascular risk is not limited to the use of COX-2-specific inhibitors. An increase in cardiovascular risk actually has been seen with anti-inflammatory drugs of the NSAID class, regardless of whether they are selective or nonselective inhibitors. The US Food and Drug Administration has recommended that all such drugs carry a black box warning for gastrointestinal and cardiovascular risks.
