Secondary mania following cancer chemotherapy with capecitabine.
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 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Mania-like states occurring due to neurological, metabolic or toxic conditions, without a primary mood disorder have been reported in scientific literature as secondary mania. A major clinical problem in such situations often stems from the difficulty to understand if the mood disturbance is indeed secondary to an organic cause or a coincidental primary mood disorder. Chemotherapy regimens have been associated with multiple psychiatric complications, including psychosis, mania and anxiety. Capecitabine is implicated to be associated with encephalopathy whose clinical presentation often mimics that of psychosis. However, presentations with mania have not been reported until with the capecitabine and oxaliplatin combination chemotherapy regimen. In this report, we describe a case of secondary mania in a patient suffering from carcinoma colon on treatment with chemotherapy regimen of capecitabine and oxaliplatin.
