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.

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.

Abstract

backgroundPoor appetite, a major contributor to malnutrition, is highly prevalent among older adults and associated with adverse clinical outcomes. Nevertheless, there are currently no widely accepted or consistently effective pharmacological treatments targeting appetite that are routinely recommended alongside nutritional interventions. Medical cannabis has been proposed as a potential appetite stimulant in older adults with poor appetite through modulation of appetite-regulating hormones such as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and total ghrelin, but the evidence remains limited.

aimsTo investigate the effects of Sativex

methodsThis protocolized secondary analysis included 17 participants (≥65 years) with poor appetite from a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled crossover trial. Participants received Sativex
