Involuntary medication treatment of schizophrenia in the inpatient setting.
Article in The mental health clinician, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Two Supreme Court cases in the United States describe the use of involuntary medication in individuals with mental illnesses. In addition to these legal requirements, clinicians must also incorporate ethics into treating these individuals, including the principles of autonomy and beneficence. Current guidelines do not provide specific recommendations for choosing an antipsychotic for a patient with schizophrenia who is being treated involuntarily. However, it is recommended that clinicians use general guidelines for the treatment of schizophrenia as a basis for narrowing down appropriate therapy, which may involve the use of long-acting injectable antipsychotics. Clinical considerations that should be accounted for include past medication trials, potential adverse effects, whether tolerability has been demonstrated, route of administration, dosing interval, requirement for oral overlap, comorbid conditions, patient preference, and access to the medication.
