There was moderate overall superiority of all agents tested over alternatives (OR\u2009=\u20090.522, p\u2009=\u20090.004). With clozapine, this effect was large (OR\u2009=\u20090.229, p\u2009&lt;\u20090.0001) and consistent (7\/7 trials), but significant antisuicidal effects were not found with other drugs for psychosis in 28 other trials (OR\u2009=\u20090.941, p\u2009=\u20090.497).
