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

Having failed to respond to an adequate antidepressant treatment course predicts poorer treatment outcomes in patients with major depression. However, little is known about the impact of prior treatment on the outcome of major depression with psychotic features (MDpsy). We examined the effect of prior treatment history on the outcome of pharmacotherapy of MDpsy in patients who participated in the STOPD-PD study, a randomized, double-blind, clinical trial comparing a combination of olanzapine plus sertraline vs. olanzapine plus placebo. The strength of treatment courses received prior to randomization was classified using a validated method. A hierarchy of outcomes was hypothesized based on treatments received prior to randomization and randomized treatment. A high remission rate was observed in subjects with a history of no prior treatment or inadequate treatment who were treated with a combination of olanzapine and sertraline. A low remission rate was observed in subjects who had previously failed to respond to an antidepressant alone and who were treated with olanzapine monotherapy. A low remission rate was also observed in subjects who had previously failed to respond to a combination of an antipsychotic and an antidepressant. Similar to patients with major depression, these results emphasize the impact of prior pharmacotherapy on treatment outcomes in patients with MDpsy.
