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

Following a 4-7 day drug-free washout period, eight male inpatients took an extended-release (ER) formulation of raclopride. After the initial 8 mg dose on day 1 of the study, repeated plasma samples were collected over the ensuing 36 h. Subsequently, patients received raclopride 8 mg b.i.d. through day 7, 12 mg b.i.d. through day 14, and, if tolerated, 16 mg b.i.d. through day 21. On days 7, 14, and 21, repeated plasma samples were drawn over the 12 h following the morning dose. Relative to the previously studied immediate release form of raclopride, the ER formulation delayed and extended the absorption of raclopride, and produced lower maximum raclopride concentrations. Linear kinetics were preserved across the dose range studied. Two patients could not tolerate the highest raclopride dose because of extrapyramidal side effects.
