Medicines withdrawn in other countries due to safety concerns: should they continue to be available in the Argentine pharmaceutical market?
Article in Revista de la Facultad de Ciencias Medicas (Cordoba, Argentina), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Introduction: Numerous medicines have been withdrawn from the market because of the risks of serious adverse effects. The objective of this study was to identify in the Argentine pharmaceutical market (APM) the presence of medicines withdrawn in other countries due to safety problems, to analyze the information on their risks and to propose recommendations. Method: observational, descriptive study that explored the presence in the APM, until May 2021, of 462 medicines withdrawn in other countries. Those medicines on this list that are present in the APM and that are not currently authorized in countries with high sanitary surveillance were studied. Results: 17 medicines are still present in the APM, one over-the-counter. The package insert for 11 of the 17 medicines does not mention the adverse effects that led to their withdrawal. It was considered that the permanence in the APM of 16 of them should be reassessed. Conclusions: recommendations are made on actions to be taken by the regulatory authorities with the 17 medicines already present in the APM.
