Unresponsive shock due to amlodipine overdose: An unexpected cause.
Article in Journal of cardiovascular and thoracic research, 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
Amlodipine is a dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker which is widely used as an antihypertensive drug. Amlodipine overdose have been infrequently reported with occurrence of serious complications and even death in a few cases. We report an interesting case of a young lady who presented with refractory shock with acute kidney injury, which did not respond to therapy despite optimal fluid replacement and vasopressor support. The etiology of shock could not be ascertained and the patient was questioned again to elucidate the missing clue in the history. It was finally revealed that the patient had consumed 900 mg of amlodipine in a suicide bid, for her poor performance in academics. The targeted therapy in the form of IV calcium and hyperinsulinemia-euglycemia therapy (HIET) was started and the patient dramatically improved with shock reversal and improvement in renal function.
