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
objectiveThis study was done for collection of real world data of Aripiprazole Once Monthly (AOM) in patients with schizophrenia.
methodsThe observation was up to 12 months from the first use of AOM in patients with antipsychotic polypharmacy (APpoly)/other long acting injectable antipsychotics (LAIs) for treatment of schizophrenia in daily practice. Demographics and available clinical information such as The Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) and Clinical Global Impression-severity (CGI-S) scores were retrieved from the electronic medical record (EMR). Adverse events were also noted as described in EMR.
resultsEighteen patients were found to be switched from APpoly/LAIs. Mean numbers of previous APs treatment failure and immediate prior APs were 2.2 and 2.4, respectively; most commonly used APs before AOM were aripiprazole, blonanserin, quetiapine, and risperidone. Mean number of combined APs before AOM significantly decreased from 2.4 use to 0.7 at month 12 (
conclusionThe present observation study clearly confirmed the use of AOM should be also effective and tolerable treatment option for patients with APpoly/LAIs in the real world practice. Subsequent, adequately-powered, and well-controlled clinical trials are warranted in near future.
