Acute Dystonia Secondary to Domperidone in a Pediatric Patient.
Article in Cureus, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Domperidone is a dopamine-2 receptor (D2) antagonist. It is used as an antiemetic and has an excellent safety profile. We present a case of acute dystonia secondary to domperidone use in an 11-year-old girl. She was admitted with the diagnosis of viral gastroenteritis and received domperidone for persistent vomiting along with other supportive measures. The vomiting subsided with treatment, but she developed acute dystonia. Domperidone discontinued, and her condition improved in the next 24 hours. The patient discharged, and on a follow-up visit, she was asymptotic. A review of the literature suggests a possible association of acute dystonia with domperidone in children.
