Adderall-Induced Persistent Psychotic Disorder Managed With Long-Acting Injectable Haloperidol Decanoate.
Article in Cureus, 2022. 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
Adderall is one of the most commonly prescribed stimulant medications for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Although safe and effective when clinically indicated at the appropriate dose, stimulant misuse may lead to serious adverse effects. We report a 29-year-old male with a diagnosis of ADHD who took more than the recommended therapeutic dose of Adderall prescribed by his psychiatrist. He subsequently presented with persistent psychotic symptoms, which responded to oral haloperidol. Due to treatment non-compliance with multiple recurring psychiatric hospitalizations, long-acting injectable haloperidol decanoate was considered to improve compliance and prognosis. The patient's psychosis remained in remission while on the long-acting injectable. In this case study, we highlight the need for future research to identify stimulant misuse risk factors. Randomized clinical trials are needed to determine the effectiveness of long-acting injectable antipsychotic medication in the management of persistent psychosis secondary to stimulant misuse.
