Article in Journal of the Canadian Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry = Journal de l'Academie canadienne de psychiatrie de l'enfant et de l'adolescent, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

backgroundSecond generation antipsychotics (SGAs) are commonly associated with metabolic complications. These medications are being used more frequently for the treatment of mental health disorders in children, which has stimulated the need for creating formal guidelines on monitoring their safety and effectiveness. Previous guidelines have been developed for monitoring for metabolic and neurological complications. In order to assist practitioners who perform these monitoring procedures, we have created a complementary set of treatment recommendations if abnormal measurements or results are encountered.

objectiveTo create evidence-based recommendations to assist in managing metabolic complications in children being treated with second generation antipsychotics.

methodsA systematic review of the literature on metabolic complications of second generation antipsychotic medications in children was conducted. Members of the consensus group evaluated the information gathered from the systematic review of the literature and used a nominal group process to come to consensus on treatment recommendations. Wherever possible, references were made to existing guidelines on the evaluation and treatment of metabolic abnormalities in children.

resultsEvidence-based recommendations are presented to assist in managing metabolic complications, including weight gain, increased waist circumference, elevation in cholesterol, triglycerides and glucose, liver function tests, abnormal thyroid studies, and elevation in prolactin.

conclusionThe use of SGAs requires proper monitoring procedures. This treatment guideline provides guidance to clinicians on clinical management of metabolic complications if they occur.
