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
Objective: To evaluate the rational use of Pantoprazole by analyzing the appropriateness of prescription. Methodology: This cross-sectional study was performed within four months in 150 patients hospitalized in Kempegowda Institute of Medical Sciences Hospital and Research Centre, India. Demographic data, type and doses of Pantoprazole, including risk factors, and other relevant clinical data were recorded. Result: Out of 150 prescriptions prescribed with Pantoprazole 102 prescriptions were prescribed along with Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and 90 prescriptions were prescribed along with antibiotics. The majority (78.7%) of the patients were endorsed with Pantoprazole. Following national institute for health and care excellence (NICE) rules, fitting utilization of protein pump inhibitors (PPIs) was found in 64% whereas it was unseemly to use in 36% of cases. A large portion of the potential medication sedate associations was moderate. Characterized everyday dose/100-bed day of PPIs was seen as 0.929. Rabeprazole (20 mg, tablet) demonstrated the most extreme rate value variety of 672.32% while Pantoprazole (40 mg, infusion) indicated a base rate value variety of 18.72%. Conclusion: Prevalence of dosage shows that Pantoprazole was prescribed more for males in the age group of 60-70 years with the significant risk factor of smoker (18%) and alcoholic (9.3%). Among 150 prescriptions, 22.67% of prescriptions were irrationally prescribed. PPIs should be used only when there is documented evidence and when their use is clinically justified so that the appropriate prescription of PPIs will decrease the social insurance weight of the patient.
