Clobazam and Its Use in Epilepsy.
Review in Pediatric reports, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Clobazam (CLB) is an older anti-epileptic drug, with a slightly different chemical structure from that of the classic benzodiazepines currently used in the treatment of epilepsy, which confers less sedative properties in terms of negative adverse effects. It is also thought to be better tolerated than other anti-epileptic drugs, whilst maintaining a very similar level of efficacy. It has been tested extensively in over 50 studies on more than 3000 patients with epilepsy and is now approved as an adjunctive treatment of epilepsy in >100 countries. The aim of this review is to evaluate several existing studies on the effectiveness of CLB as an adjunctive therapy in the treatment of epilepsy and whether this therapy is more useful in particular types of epilepsy or seizure prevention. This is not a systematic review but a general overview of some of the most recent studies on the effectiveness of CLB as an adjunctive therapy. Additionally, the benefits of having an oral suspension of CLB will be evaluated with regards to patient groups benefiting from this formulation. The last issue addressed is that of the importance of prescribing CLB by brand, along with the benefits and risks of not doing so.
