Behavioral interventions for antipsychotic induced appetite changes.
Article in Current psychiatry reports, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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.
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
Weight gain remains a well recognized yet difficult to treat adverse effect of many anti-psychotic drugs including agents of the first and second generation. The weight gain liabilities of antipsychotic drugs are partly associated with their ability to increase appetite. Most behavioral interventions for weight control remain of limited efficacy, possibly because they do not specifically target the neuroendocrine factors regulating appetite. Identifying new weight management interventions directly acting on the biochemical and neuroendocrine mechanisms of anti-psychotic induced weight gain may help to improve the efficacy of behavioral weight management programs. Such potentially specific strategies include (1) using diets which do not increase appetite despite calorie restriction; (2) countering thirst as an anticholinergic side-effect; (3) discouraging cannabis use and (4) adding metformin to a behavioral intervention. In view of our currently rather limited treatment repertoire it seems timely systematically to explore such novel options.
