[Therapeutic drug monitoring in epileptology and psychiatry].
Review in Der Nervenarzt, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Experts from epileptology and psychiatry reviewed the current significance of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of antiepileptic drugs and psychiatric drugs in a workshop at Bethel Epilepsy Centre in December 2005. TDM has been essential in epileptology for about 30 years, and it is also increasingly important in psychiatry, in which consensus recommendations were published recently. With regard to cost-cutting in the health system, there are discussions about the financial effect of TDM and outsourcing it to bigger laboratories. In psychiatry it has however been shown that sensibly used TDM may lead to reduced costs. Many issues in TDM require the knowledge and experience of specialised laboratories. The use of TDM data for scientific purposes was discussed at the workshop as well.
