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

Effective management of schizophrenia (SZ) requires long-term treatment with antipsychotics (APs) to prevent clinical relapse, attain remission and improve patients' personal and social functioning, and quality of life. Although APs remain the cornerstone treatment for patients with SZ, despite their potential benefits, long-acting injectable APs (LAI-APs) remain underused, most notably in women with SZ. The efficacy and tolerability of APs differ significantly between men and women, and some of these differences are more noticeable depending on the patient's age and the stage of the disorder. Although sex differences may influence treatment outcomes in SZ, their pertinence has been insufficiently addressed, especially regarding the use of LAI-APs. Some biological and social experiences, such as pregnancy, lactation, contraception and menopause, are specific to women, but these remain under-researched issues. Implications of this disorder in parenting are also of special pertinence regarding women; therefore, taking sex differences into account when treating SZ patients is now recommended, and improving personalized approaches has been proposed as a priority in the management of psychosis. In this narrative, critical review, we address some aspects specific to sex and their implications for the clinical management of women with SZ, with a special focus on the potential role of LAI-AP treatments.
