Neuropsychiatric research databases for people with intellectual disabilities and epilepsy (REFINE): a feasibility study protocol.
Article in BMJ open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06780501 (Neuropsychiatric Research Databases for People With Intellectual Disabilities and Epilepsy), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
introductionThis project explores the feasibility of setting up a neuropsychiatric de-identified database (DiD) and a Research Register (RR) to collect, analyse, monitor and systematically report clinical data for people with intellectual disabilities (PwIDs) and epilepsy. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: A multicentre project designed to collect de-identified data from clinical records at three adult ID specialist services in England and Wales and to develop an RR of PwID and epilepsy. Patients added to the DiD will be identified from patient clinic lists, clinic letters, in-house databases and electronic systems. Patients to be added to the RR will also be identified through attendance for regular review at clinic appointments. The collected data will be entered into the Research Electronic Data Capture (REDCap) database. Personal details of PwID and their consultees will also be collected from participants who consent to be on the RR. Around 600 PwID and epilepsy (200 per site) will be added to the DiD at the three sites, while around 45-60 participants (15-20 per site) are anticipated to be added to the RR. Data analysis will involve using descriptive statistics to summarise feasibility outcomes, such as screening and recruitment rates, as well as the completeness of the collected data. The characteristics of the participants (demographic, ID classification, clinical, epilepsy history and antiseizure medication) will be summarised descriptively. Progression will be assessed using the Red/Amber/Green stop-go criteria to determine if a national register should be created. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Ethical approval (24/NW/0210) has been obtained from the Northwest-Haydock Research Ethics Committee and the University of Plymouth Faculty Research Ethics and Integrity Committee (reference no. 5284). The project is funded by Jazz Pharmaceuticals as an independent investigator-initiated support grant and, as such, has received independent peer review. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT06780501.
