Lithium-Induced Awakening of Neural Cell Memory of Involuntary Dyskinesia: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. 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
Involuntary movement disorders include tremors, tics, myoclonus, athetosis, chorea, dystonia, and dyskinesia. Neuroleptic drugs have the propensity to cause extrapyramidal side effects. Lithium-induced coarse tremors are well documented and may occur at therapeutic serum concentrations (0.8-1.0 mEq/L) in the treatment of bipolar disorder. Treatment for coarse tremors due to lithium includes either dose reduction or non-selective beta-blockers. To our knowledge, there are only four case reports regarding the lithium-induced awakening of cell memory of involuntary movement disorders worldwide. In scientific literature, only two drugs have the propensity to reawaken past cell memory. These intriguing findings can have a wider application across fields such as past-life regression therapy, post-traumatic stress disorder, catharsis, or recall of sub-aural temporal high-frequency burst-erased memory-type of mind-altering techniques. We report a case of lithium-induced awakening of the cell memory of involuntary dyskinesia in a female who took treatment for bipolar disorder in the past.
