Drug-induced movement disorder and confusion associated with duloxetine.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
A 60-year-old woman with major depressive disorder, developed high blood pressure, confusion and dyskinesias of face, neck and jaw, following an increase in her dose of duloxetine. Routine blood tests including toxic, infective and metabolic workup were unremarkable. Cerebrospinal fluid analysis and electroencephalogram were also normal. MRI brain showed bilaterally symmetrical diffusion-restricted areas in deep cerebral white matter. Duloxetine was held on suspicion of drug adverse effect. She had complete resolution of symptoms within 48 hours and resolution of MRI brain changes over 6 weeks. Serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors such as duloxetine may have the potential to cause drug-induced movement disorders, confusion and high blood pressure and should be used cautiously especially in elderly.
