The prescriptions of psychotropic medications in telepsychiatry: An online survey of psychiatrists in India.
Article in Indian journal of psychiatry. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Context: Over the years, telepsychiatry services have expanded in many institutes. The Telemedicine Practice Guidelines and Telepsychiatry Operational Guidelines (TPOG) released in 2020 have been received by the fraternity with a mixture of apprehension, relief, and dissatisfaction on the list of drugs provided in Lists O, A, B, and C. Many psychiatrists have raised the issues of having a consensus in the formulation of List A. Aims: To draw consensus on the medications that can be listed in Lists O, A, B, and C in TPOG-2020. Settings and Design: This was an online survey with ethics approval by the Indian Psychiatric Society Ethics Review Board. All psychiatrists, who are members of the Indian Psychiatric Society and whose E-mail address was available with the society, were sent the survey link by E-mail. Methodology: Opinions and suggestions on Lists O, A, B, and C of TPOG-2020 and reasons for the suggestions were collected. Statistical Analysis Used: Frequency, percentages, mean, and standard deviation were calculated. Results: Responses from 340 responders were analyzed. Majority of the responders agreed that List O (277, 85.5%), List B (263, 82.4%), and List C (223, 69%) are apt except for List A (162, 50.3%). Conclusions: This online survey showed that majority of the responders agreed to the lists except for List A. The approach taken to include the medications in List A, which was to include the essential drugs, has various benefits. However, the lists are not final, and the results of this survey may become an impetus to modify the list in the next edition of TPOG.
