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

backgroundPatients admitted to cardiology department are mostly on polypharmacy. So drug-drug interactions and adverse effects of drugs are quite common. Yet, there is a paucity of data regarding adverse drug reaction (ADR) monitoring in cardiology department in India. The present study is an effort to fill up these lacunae. MATERIALS AND

methodsA prospective, observational study registering 966 indoor cardiology patients according to predetermined inclusion and exclusion criteria was conducted for one year. ADR profile was noted by spontaneous reporting and intensive monitoring. Naranjo ADR probability scale was used to establish the causality.

resultsA total of 208 ADRs were reported from 188 patients (19.5%). Of these 188 patients, 62 patients (33%) were hospitalized primarily due to the development of ADRs, while 126 (67%) patients developed ADRs during hospital stay. Nitrates were the most common offender drug group (17.8%).

conclusionDevelopment of ADR in one of every five cardiac patient points toward a grave situation, but a higher incidence of Type A reactions in cardiology department means that these can be avoided.
