2. Clozapine: previously used dosage. N=150.

Outcomes

Death.
Adverse effects: list, including serum prolactin level, weight change, hypersalivation, blood dyscrasia.
Service outcomes: admitted, ready for discharge.
Social functioning: working, trouble with family, trouble with police.
Satisfaction with treatment: binary outcome, family, clinician and participant.
Healthy days.
Economic data.
Compliance: attending follow up, taking medication, blood testing.

Notes

* Powered to be able to identify a difference of ˜20% between groups for primary outcome with adequate degree of certainty.

*The basis for the assumed risk (e.g. the median control group risk across studies) is provided in footnotes. The corresponding risk (and its 95% confidence interval) is based on the assumed risk in the comparison group and the relative effect of the intervention (and its 95% CI).
CI: Confidence interval; RR: Risk ratio;

GRADE Working Group grades of evidence
High quality: Further research is very unlikely to change our confidence in the estimate of effect.
Moderate quality: Further research is likely to have an important impact on our confidence in the estimate of effect and may change the estimate.
Low quality: Further research is very likely to have an important impact on our confidence in the estimate of effect and is likely to change the estimate.
Very low quality: We are very uncertain about the estimate.
