Acute Hyperkinetic Movement Disorders as a Multifactorial Pharmacodynamic Drug Interaction Between Methylphenidate and Risperidone in Children and Adolescents.
Article in Journal of clinical psychopharmacology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
PURPOSE/
backgroundAcute hyperkinetic movement disorders have been reported with the concomitant use of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) stimulants and antipsychotics in children and adolescents. We analyzed postmarketing reports of suspected acute hyperkinetic movement disorder associated with concomitant use of ADHD stimulants and antipsychotics. METHODS/PROCEDURES: We searched for postmarketing reports of acute hyperkinetic movement disorders associated with concomitant use of ADHD stimulants-antipsychotics in the US Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System through December 6, 2019. PubMed and EMBASE were also searched for acute hyperkinetic movement reports with the concomitant use of ADHD stimulants-antipsychotics through January 13, 2020. FINDINGS/
resultsWe identified 36 cases resulting in acute hyperkinetic movement disorder associated with the concomitant use of ADHD stimulants-antipsychotics, 19 of which were also identified in the medical literature. From an ADHD stimulant perspective, methylphenidate products accounted for the largest number of cases (n = 23 [64%]), followed by amphetamine products (n = 9 [25%]) and atomoxetine (n = 4 [11%]). From an antipsychotic perspective, all 36 cases were reported with second-generation antipsychotics, particularly risperidone (n = 20 [56%]). Most of the cases were reported in boys (n = 31 [86%]) aged 6 to 12 years (n = 27 [75%]). Approximately 53% of the cases reported a time to onset within 24 hours of the drug change. Acute dystonic reactions (n = 27 [75%]) were the most frequently reported movement disorder. IMPLICATIONS/
conclusionsAs outlined in changes to the US prescribing information for all methylphenidate and risperidone products, health care professionals should be aware that changes to this combination may be associated with a pharmacodynamic drug-drug interaction resulting in acute hyperkinetic movement disorder.
