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

backgroundAntipsychotics are known to be associated with metabolic syndromes (MetS). Chlorpromazine (CPZ) and Clozapine (CLZ) are currently the most commonly used antipsychotics in low-income districts of China. However, potential differences in the long-term effects of CPZ and CLZ on MetS in schizophrenia inpatients are not well understood. Here, we aimed to identify any MetS profile differences between long-term schizophrenia patients who were prescribed either CPZ or CLZ at a primary psychiatric hospital.

methodsWe recruited a total of 204 male schizophrenia patients who received either CPZ or CLZ. We measured their weight, height, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and systolic blood pressure (SBP), as well as their biochemical indicators, including fasting blood glucose (FBS), triglycerides (TG), cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c).

resultsThe MetS prevalence in the CPZ and CLZ groups was 31% and 37.5%, respectively. The CLZ group had significantly higher DBP levels and a higher incidence of dyslipidemia (HDL-c) but lower HDL-c and TC levels than the CPZ group. We also determined that smoking history, BMI, and duration of hospitalisation were risk factors for the development of MetS. Moreover, we found that CPZ and CLZ were correlated with the same risk for developing MetS and that BMI was a vital risk factor of MetS for both the CPZ and CLZ groups.

conclusionLong-term CPZ and CLZ prescriptions were associated with similar profiles for developing MetS of schizophrenia patients.
