A Rare Case of Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome Secondary to Cannabidiol for Refractory Epilepsy.
Article in JPGN reports, 2023. 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
Cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome (CHS) is associated with tetrahydrocannabinol, and rarely has been reported with cannabidiol. Cannabidiol is used in treatment-refractory epilepsy. This is a case of a pediatric patient with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome on cannabidiol, who was started on the ketogenic diet with significant seizure reduction. However, within 6 months he developed monthly bouts of severe emesis unresponsive to conventional anti-emetic therapy. Based on the stereotypical nature of his vomiting episodes, CHS was suspected. Cannabidiol was discontinued and within 2 months his emesis resolved. He has had no increase in seizure frequency or hospitalizations for emesis since cannabidiol was discontinued nearly 1 year ago. This is the first case of CHS secondary to cannabidiol for refractory epilepsy reported in the literature. We review the mechanism by which cannabidiol is believed to reduce seizures and be both anti- and pro-emetic, mainly through interactions with cannabinoid receptors and transient receptor channels.
