A Clinical Suspicion of Quetiapine-Induced Psychosis: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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
Quetiapine, a pharmacological agent within the class of atypical antipsychotics, is characterized by its efficacy in mood stabilization and its role in the modulation of serotonergic and dopaminergic pathways. Its therapeutic utility is broad, encompassing the management of acute psychotic episodes, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and treatment-resistant depressive states. Quetiapine's effectiveness extends to depressive disorders that do not exhibit classic psychotic features, with a side effect profile that is less burdensome than many alternative psychotropic medications. Its versatility in addressing a range of psychiatric conditions is useful in the psychopharmacological management of mood and thought disorders. However, like all drugs, quetiapine may have different effects relative to the individual. It is imperative to approach the administration of quetiapine carefully, ensuring any adverse effects are ameliorated for beneficial therapeutic outcomes. In this case report, we present a psychosis-naive 42-year-old male who developed psychotic symptoms after beginning a quetiapine regimen in order to manage major depressive disorder with suicidal ideation. Clinical suspicion of quetiapine-induced psychosis was a diagnosis considered due to symptom remission secondary to ziprasidone in the place of quetiapine. The determination of a suspected adverse drug reaction can utilize the Naranjo scale to demonstrate the likelihood of an adverse drug reaction. This patient scored a three on the Naranjo scale, indicating a possible adverse effect from quetiapine. Other potential etiologies of psychosis include medication-induced psychosis, major depressive disorder exacerbation, cocaine use/withdrawal, and brief psychotic disorder. Quetiapine-induced psychosis has not been described in the current literature, and therefore, this case report is solely based on clinical evaluation and is intended for educational purposes due to possible confounding factors and etiologies.
