Dilemma of Treating Psychosis Secondary to Stroke.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Post-stroke psychosis is prevalent and disabling with increased mortality risk. Treatment for post-stroke psychosis is limited in this staggering medical concern. The most commonly used medications are antipsychotics, however, the risk for stroke increases further with the use of antipsychotics. Furthermore, interventional clinical studies have not been carried out to test the efficacy and safety of antipsychotics in the management of post-stroke psychosis. We present a case of post-stroke psychosis to highlight the risks faced by these patients in terms of daily function and safety concerns and the challenges encountered in treatment due to poor response to the conventional antipsychotics; and so calling attention to early diagnosis and improved treatment options. More clinical investigations are needed to address the pathology associated with the clinical presentation and exploring the pharmacotherapies to improve efficacy and safety of treatment for post-stroke psychosis.
