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

Continuous medical and safety monitoring of subject data during a clinical trial is a critical part of evaluating the safety of trial participants and as such is governed by protocol procedures and regulatory guidelines to meet the trial's intended objectives. We present an open-source validated graphical tool (clinDataReview R package) which provides access to the trial data with drill-down to individual patient profiles. The tool incorporates functionalities that facilitate detection of error and data inconsistencies requiring follow-up. It supports regular medical monitoring and oversight as well as safety monitoring committees with interactive tables and listings alongside graphical visualizations of the primary safety data in reports. An implementation example is given where the tool is used to deliver validated outputs following FDA/EMA guidelines. As such, this tool enables a more efficient, interactive, and reproducible review of safety data collected during an ongoing clinical trial.
