Review in Clinical pharmacokinetics, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.

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

Clinical outcomes are often described as events: death, stroke, epileptic seizure, multiple sclerosis lesions, recurrence of cancer, disease progression, pain, infection and bacterial/viral eradication, severe toxic adverse effect, resistance to treatment, etc. They may be quantified as time-to-event, counts of events per time interval (rates), their severity grade, or a combination of these. Such data are discrete and require specific modelling structures and methods. This article references the most common modelling approaches for categorical, count and time-to-event data, and reviews examples of such models applied in the analysis of pharmacodynamic data. Modelling is useful for identification of influential factors related to the clinical outcome, characterization and quantification of their impact, for making better informed predictions and clinical decisions, assessments of efficacy of therapeutic interventions, optimizing the individual treatments and drug development studies.
