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

Ethical foundations related to the use of human beings in medical research, already existed in the oldest texts. The historical evolution of regulations (in terms of texts and codes) had always drawn its legitimacy and its logic from the historical context. The main aim of these regulations was to satisfy a need to restore moral or physical prejudices, by hoping by means of the law, that these abuses would not be repeated. Although they were the main victims of medical experimentation, prisoners were rarely specifically identified in these legislations. This history note, the third in a series on medical experimentation on prisoners, aims to describe the major founding texts of ethics in medical experimentation, drawing attention to the historical context as well as the issues that shaped these documents.
