Association Between Hypnotics, Accidents, and Injuries: A Study Based on the Adverse Drug Event Reporting Database in Japan.
Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). 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
BACKGROUND/
aimThe use of hypnotic drugs can lead to accidents and injuries. However, few reports have shown their association with these events after adjusting for many concomitant medications. This study aimed to determine whether the use of hypnotic drugs was associated with accidents and injuries. PATIENTS AND
methodsUsing the Japanese Adverse Event Reporting Database, 772,387 reports published between September 2023 and April 2004 were analyzed. Reporting odds ratios (RORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for accidents and injuries associated with each hypnotic drug were calculated after adjusting for potential confounders.
resultsOf the total, 12,484 reports indicated association of hypnotic drugs with accidents and injuries. The use of each hypnotic drug was associated with accidents, injuries, and other adverse events. However, a multivariate analysis adjusted for age, sex, reporting year, and concomitant medications showed a considerable decrease in ROR for melatonin receptor agonists (adjusted ROR=1.26; 95%CI=1.03-1.55) and dual orexin receptor antagonists (DORAs) (adjusted ROR=1.04; 95%CI=0.86-1.25). Particularly in DORAs, a loss of signal for accidents and injuries was observed.
conclusionThe risk of accidents and injuries may vary with hypnotic drug use; however, DORAs may be less frequently associated with these events. The results of this study provide useful information for the selection of hypnotic drugs.
