1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

A 49-year-old female taking lithium for bipolar affective disorder for over 20 years presented with lithium toxicity resulting in declining mentation. Lithium poisoning has been well documented to cause acute gastrointestinal, cardiac, and neurological side effects, along with long-term neurologic sequelae. There has, however, been scant discussion on the potential long-term effects on mentation. The following case report illustrates a possible example.
