Switching from blonanserin tablets to blonanserin transdermal patches improves tardive dyskinesia: A case report.
Article in Neuropsychopharmacology reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Tardive dyskinesia (TD) is a common side effect of antipsychotics, and it remains a persistent and challenging problem. The blonanserin transdermal patch, developed in Japan and launched in September 2019, is the first antipsychotic transdermal treatment. Here, we describe a patient with schizophrenia who exhibited markedly improved orofacial dyskinesia after switching from blonanserin tablets to blonanserin transdermal patches. We speculate that the patch formulation might have led to more stable plasma blonanserin levels, thus reducing the side effects. Specifically, the patch formulation might have contributed to stable plasma levels via the continuous and direct absorption of blonanserin through the skin.
