Oculogyric Crisis after Initiation of Aripiprazole: A Case Report of an Active Duty Service Member.

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
Introduction: Oculogyric crisis is an acute dystonic reaction characterized by sustained, bilateral, and upward deviation of the eyes. It is a relatively uncommon extrapyramidal side effect of antipsychotic medications. Aripiprazole is an atypical antipsychotic that is FDA-approved for the treatment of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, Tourette's disorder, and treatment resistant major depressive disorder. Compared to other antipsychotics, it is thought to have a lower propensity for causing dystonic side effects. Conclusion: Aripiprazole-induced acute dystonia, specifically OGC, is a rare potential adverse effect of aripiprazole. Risk factors include male gender, young age, use of typical antipsychotics, and initiation or uptitration of an antipsychotic. Even though atypical antipsychotics including aripiprazole are associated with lower risk for extrapyramidal symptoms, the possibility of oculogyric dystonia merits close monitoring especially in young, male, and drug naive patients. Anticholinergic agents such as diphenhydramine can treat symptoms of acute dystonia.
