Differences in the incidence of lurasidone adverse events between depressive disorders and schizophrenia in double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trials: a meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Psychopharmacology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
rationaleWe conducted a meta-analysis of double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled trials of lurasidone (LUR) to examine the difference in the risk ratios (RRs) for adverse events (AEs) between depressive disorders (bipolar depression and major depressive disorders) and schizophrenia.
objectivesThree trials for depressive disorders (n = 1,239) were used for flexible-dose LUR 20-60 (LUR20-60) and/or 80-120 (LUR80-120) mg/day. Nine schizophrenia trials (n = 2,684) were used for fixed-dose LUR. The RRs of LUR20-60 and LUR80-120 for depressive disorders were compared with those of LUR 40 (LUR40) and LUR 80 (LUR80) mg/day for schizophrenia, respectively, to match LUR dose.
resultsLUR20-60 caused a higher incidence of akathisia (RR = 2.28; p = 0.003) and weight gain (RR = 4.11; p = 0.05) than placebo in patients with depressive disorders, and LUR40 caused a higher incidence of akathisia (RR = 2.39; p = 0.0001), extrapyramidal symptoms (RR = 1.88; p = 0.02), anticholinergic drug use (RR = 1.58; p = 0.005), somnolence (RR = 2.19; p = 0.002), and dizziness (RR = 2.06; p = 0.05) than placebo in patients with schizophrenia. However, no significant differences in the RRs for all outcomes were found between depressive disorders and schizophrenia. LUR80-120 caused a higher incidence of akathisia (RR = 3.90; p < 0.0001), extrapyramidal symptoms (RR = 2.26; p = 0.04), anticholinergic use (RR = 4.70; p < 0.0001), and nausea (RR = 2.15; p = 0.001) than placebo in patients with depressive disorders. LUR80 caused a higher incidence of akathisia (RR = 2.99; p < 0.0001), extrapyramidal symptoms (RR = 2.55; p = 0.01), anticholinergic use (RR = 1.86; p = 0.01), somnolence (RR = 2.46; p = 0.001), and nausea (RR = 1.64; p = 0.04) than placebo in patients with schizophrenia. Depressive disorders had a higher RR for anticholinergic use than schizophrenia (p = 0.04).
conclusionsThe incidence of AEs did not differ between schizophrenia and depressive disorders.
