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

Background: Alcohol dependence occurs in about 9% of men in India. It is a major contributor to premature death and disability. Several clinical factors may play a role in the short-term outcomes of alcohol dependence. Methods: A total of Results: The mean age of the patients was about 40.6 (SD = 7.6) years. The duration of alcohol use was 18.56 years (SD = 7.22), and the average use was 14.14 units (SD = 8.62) per day. They had moderately severe dependence with SADQ scores of 25.13 (SD = 12.01). Two-thirds ( Conclusions: About 30% of patients with alcohol dependence relapse within 1 month, whereas 50% relapse by the end of 3 months. Early age at onset of dependence predicted relapse at 1 month, and married status, past abstinent attempts, and intact global cognition predicted abstinence at 3 months.
