A Case of Antipsychiatry Polypill Overdose (200 Tablets) Successfully Treated With Hemodialysis: A Serious Encounter.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Polypharmacy refers to using and consuming multiple drugs as part of the treatment for a disease or disorder. Polypharmacy can lead to an increase in the number of drug overdose emergencies. Age-related metabolic changes and reduced drug clearance in older adults can result in severe drug reactions and other clinical consequences, which can sometimes be fatal, raising concerns about the safety of polypharmacy. We discuss a case of a 50-year-old female who presented to us in a drowsy state after an antipsychiatry (antipsychotic and antidepressant) polypill overdose with 200 tablets and was successfully treated with hemodialysis. This case report highlights that prompt treatment initiation based on the patient's clinical status and drug serum levels is crucial to achieving the best outcomes.
