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

objectiveAdverse Drug Reactions (ADR) add a significant clinical and economic burden to the healthcare system of a country. We present an overview of the different approaches of ADR reporting systems worldwide and their evolution over time.

methodsA systematic review of the literature was made based on PubMed and the Cochrane database of systematic reviews. The articles searched for included original articles, WHO and FDA reports and institute of medicine reports. Reporting ADRs is the cornerstone of detecting uncommon ADRs once the drugs are on the market. In many countries, ADR reporting is regulated by national regulatory bodies and various methods are employed to report ADRs. Direct reporting by healthcare professionals has been adopted by many developed and developing countries. With emerging new technologies in the field of medicine, there is a great potential to develop better ADR reporting systems in the countries where they have poor reporting.

conclusionDevelopment and acquisition of newer technologies to promote ADR monitoring and reporting is a necessity for an effective pharmacovigilance system in a country.
