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

Roluperidone is a drug in development targeting primary negative symptoms in schizophrenia, which binds sigma-2, 5-HT2A, and alpha1a receptors. Roluperidone administered as monotherapy to patients suffering from mild to moderate negative symptoms and withdrawal from antipsychotic drugs, improved negative symptoms in 2 clinical trials. The patients who were symptomatically stable for 3 or 6 months before antipsychotic drug withdrawal showed a very low rate of psychotic symptoms worsening over 6 or 9-month trial duration. Focus: Treatment of primary negative symptoms in a subgroup of patients suffering from schizophrenia.
