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

Vilazodone (Viibryd(®)) exhibits the combined properties of a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) and a serotonin 5-HT1A receptor partial agonist, and is approved in the US for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD) in adults. In four randomized, double-blind, clinical trials, oral vilazodone 20 or 40 mg once daily for 8 or 10 weeks reduced from baseline (improved) the Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) total score significantly more than placebo in adult patients with MDD. In these trials, significantly greater reductions in MADRS total score with vilazodone compared with placebo were seen from either week 1, week 2 (two trials) or week 6. In a noncomparative study, MADRS total scores continued to improve throughout therapy for up to 1 year. Vilazodone was generally well tolerated, with the most common treatment-emergent adverse events being mild or moderate diarrhoea, nausea and headache. Vilazodone had only limited adverse effects on sexual function or bodyweight. Therefore, vilazodone is an effective agent for treating MDD in adults.
