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

The metabolic syndrome (MetS) is an increasingly prevalent condition in people with schizophrenia. It remains highly prevalent in the general population in developed countries, but recently health promotion campaigns and greater awareness of the high associated mortality rates have resulted in improvements in the rates of cardiovascular risk factors. This is not the case for people with schizophrenia who continue to have more than twice the rates of MetS and significantly higher mortality rates than the general population. Various behavioural and pharmacological interventions have been used to improve conditions that are linked to MetS, mainly smoking and obesity. This review aims to provide an update of the latest knowledge about the behavioural, pharmacological and other interventions that might help to combat this life-threatening problem in people with schizophrenia.
