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

introductionWith recent advances in medicines, many patients with schizophrenia have become able to conceive. One common second-generation antipsychotic given to patients with schizophrenia is aripiprazole. The label information of aripiprazole in Japan states that according to one case report "there is a report of miscarriage in clinical trial".

objectiveThe aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between aripiprazole and miscarriage by conducting a disproportionality analysis of an adverse drug event report database.

methodsWe conducted a disproportionality analysis of second-generation antipsychotic exposure during pregnancy using the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report database, which is a spontaneous reporting database in Japan. We investigated aripiprazole and other approved second-generation antipsychotics in Japan. In accordance with the previous report, we created a data set for analysis consisting of pregnancy-related reports.

resultsA potential signal for miscarriage was detected for aripiprazole [proportional reporting ratio: 2.39, χ

conclusionThrough our analysis of the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report database, we found a potential signal for miscarriage for aripiprazole. Safety information on the use of aripiprazole during pregnancy is very limited. Therefore, we suggest that the potential signal detected in our analysis be explored further.
