Pruritus associated with abrupt mirtazapine discontinuation: Single case report.
Article in The mental health clinician, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
It is well known that antidepressants have the potential to cause withdrawal symptoms upon abrupt discontinuation. At the time of this case report, no literature has identified intense, body-wide pruritus as a result of abrupt mirtazapine discontinuation. However, there is literature to suggest that mirtazapine may be used as a treatment for pruritus at doses as low as 15 mg/d due to its high affinity for central and peripheral histamine H
