Guidance for appropriate use of psychotropic drugs in older people.
Review in European geriatric medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Psychotropic drugs are widely prescribed in older people although their use is associated with important risks. In this position paper, we discuss the appropriateness of using these medications in older people in terms of different aspects such as indications, contraindications, dosing, adverse drug reactions, interactions and duration of therapy. Consequently, we discuss different strategies to increase the appropriateness of therapy while formulating some practical recommendations to keep in mind when (de)prescribing psychotropic drugs in older people.
