High-Dose Gabapentin and Amitriptyline in the Treatment of Refractory Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy in a Toddler.
Article in Journal of medical cases, 2021. 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
Pharmacologic management of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) in pediatric patients remains a challenge. Without effective treatment to control pain from CIPN in children, reduction or discontinuation of life-saving chemotherapeutic medications may be required. Various combinations of medications are available, but none have been thoroughly evaluated for their effectiveness in managing CIPN in the pediatric population. We present the clinical management of severe CIPN in a 3-year-old child with pre-B acute lymphoblastic lymphoma that was refractory to a regiment that included high-dose gabapentin and opioids. Therapy was subsequently adjusted to include amitriptyline, eliminating the need for opioids with complete resolution of symptoms. The potential combination pharmacotherapies for pediatric CIPN are discussed and mechanisms accounting for inadequate response with monotherapy are presented.
