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

Introduction: Preliminary clinical studies on medical cannabis (MC) treatment using the Syqe Inhaler showed short-term effectiveness and safety at very low and precise doses of MC. Objectives: Here, we retrospectively analyzed "real-life" long-term data collected in real time on the potential effectiveness and safety of MC administered with this device. Methods: Patients were monitored by Syqe's patient support program. (-)-Δ Results: Of the 143 patients (mean age 62 ± 17 years; 54% males) included in the analysis, most (72%) were diagnosed with chronic neuropathic pain. The stable daily dose, after a mean 26 ± 10 days of titration was 1,500 ± 688 μg aerosolized Δ Conclusions: Medical cannabis treatment with the Syqe Inhaler demonstrated overall long-term pain reduction, QoL improvement, and a superior AE profile compared with administration of MC by conventional routes. Additional follow-up in a larger population is warranted.
