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

Retraction: Abdallah MS, Ramadan AN, Omara-Reda H, et al. Double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled pilot study of the phosphodiesterase-3 inhibitor cilostazol as an adjunctive to antidepressants in patients with major depressive disorder. CNS Neurosci. Ther. 2021;27:1540-1548 (https://doi.org/10.1111/cns.13731) The above article, published online on September 21, 2021 in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com) has been retracted by agreement between the journal's Editor-in-Chief, Xiaoming Hu, and John Wiley and Sons Ltd. Following publication, multiple concerns were raised by a third party about the integrity of the clinical trial. An investigation revealed significant issues regarding the reliability of the reported data. As a result, the Editor-in-Chief no longer has confidence in the validity of the results presented in this article.
