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
Cenesthopathy is a rare syndrome characterized by strange bodily and oral sensations and is classified as a delusional disorder, somatic type, according to the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. Cenesthopathy has been considered difficult to treat. However, to improve cenesthopathy, many pharmacotherapeutic options are reported, including antidepressants and antipsychotics. In this case report, vortioxetine significantly alleviated the distress of oral cenesthopathy in a patient with cerebral ischemia and depression without any adverse effects. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on the efficacy of vortioxetine in treating cenesthopathy. Though it is unclear why vortioxetine was effective for cenesthopathy in our case, we stated two possibilities for improving his oral cenesthopathy. When treating oral cenesthopathy in elderly patients, clinicians consider to be one of the options to prescribe vortioxetine.
