Review in Integrative medicine research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

The landscape of medical cannabis has evolved dramatically over the past few decades. Once stigmatized and illegal in most parts of the world, cannabis is now recognized for its potential therapeutic benefits, supported by an expanding body of scientific research. However, the transition from prohibition to medical recognition is shaped by complex interactions among scientific advancements, public perception and regulatory frameworks for its legalization. This review examines the recent breakthroughs in medical cannabis research, explores the shifting public perceptions and the stigma associated with its use and discusses strategies for enhancing the safety of medical cannabis. We also synthesize the connections between scientific research, public perception and safety considerations in the uses of medical cannabis, providing a comprehensive understanding of how these elements influence each other and shape the future of medical cannabis use for patient adherence.
