1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Serotonin syndrome is a clinically diagnosed disorder that may occur secondary to medications that increase the release of endogenous serotonin, impair the reuptake of serotonin from the synaptic cleft, are direct serotonin receptor agonists, or increase the sensitivity of the postsynaptic serotonin receptor. In this case report, we describe the diagnosis of serotonin syndrome in a 60-year-old immunocompromised male. This case is unique, as many of the medications associated with the development of serotonin syndrome in this patient are not typically thought of as being associated with serotonin syndrome, though, in this clinical context, they combined to produce a profound pro-serotonergic effect.
