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

Recent investigations have demonstrated a significant reduction of relapse and hospitalization rates associated with the use of long-acting injectable antipsychotics (LAIs) in the treatment of schizophrenia. There are only marginal differences in the effectiveness of different specific LAIs. Furthermore, LAIs are comparable to the oral equivalents with respect to effectiveness and side effects. The occurrence of extrapyramidal motor disorders (EPD) is less frequent in second generation (SG) LAIs than in first generation (FG) LAIs. Moreover, specific characteristics of some substances should be considered: In SG-LAIs immediate onset of action is only applicable for olanzapine and paliperidone and FG-LAIs should always be given as a test dose first to assure a general tolerance. All LAIs have a high variability of plasma levels which complicates the dose titration. Last but not least, current research concerning long-term consequences of continuous treatment with antipsychotics and the potentially poorer response to antipsychotics should be considered.
