The Genetic Foundations of Serotonin Syndrome, Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome, and Malignant Hyperthermia: Is There a Genetic Association Between These Disorders?
Review in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS), serotonin syndrome (SS), and malignant hyperthermia (MH) share similar clinical characteristics. These conditions can present life-threatening situations due to exposure to different drugs. A similar genetic predisposition is suspected between these syndromes as well. This review aims to consolidate the knowledge about the genetics of these disorders and find possible correlations among them to frame the best possible approaches using different drugs without producing life-threatening complications that can be preventable. As a method, we collected data using PubMed with a Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) strategy. The inclusion criteria were as follows: full papers, studies conducted on humans, papers published in the English language, and study types that included case reports, journal articles, multicenter studies, clinical studies, observational studies, or clinical trials. Studies involving animals, articles that were without a visible abstract, study types that included clinical reviews, systematic reviews, or meta-analyses were excluded. 146 papers were reviewed, and 130 papers were removed for no possible extraction of data, duplication of the data, or the study outcome was not compatible with the objective of this review. Ultimately, a total of 17 papers were used for the discussion of this article. As a result of this review, we found no genetic association between NMS, SS, and MH development. Finally, we conclude that NMS, SS, and MH presentation are caused by different mutations which are not associated.
