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

The aims of this review are to provide a comprehensive overview of the definition and scope of pharmacoepidemiology, to summarize the study designs and methodologies used in the field, to discuss the future trends in the field and new methodologies to address bias and confounding, and finally to give some recommendations to clinicians interested in pharmacoepidemiologic research. Because drug efficacy and safety from randomized clinical trials do not reflect the real-world situation, pharmacoepidemiological studies on drug safety monitoring and drug effectiveness in large numbers of people are needed by healthcare professionals and regulatory institutions. We aim to highlight the importance of pharmacoepidemiologic research in informing evidence-based medicine and public health policy. The development of new designs and methodologies for the generation of valid evidence, as well as new initiatives to provide guidance and recommendations on how to incorporate real-world evidence into the drug development process, are reported on. In addition, we have touched on the implication of artificial intelligence in the management of real-world data. This overview aims to summarize all important aspects to consider when conducting or interpreting a pharmacoepidemiologic study.
