Lisdexamfetamine-Induced Psychosis in a Patient With a Neurodevelopmental Disorder.
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
Individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often experience a higher occurrence of comorbid attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Stimulant medications are frequently prescribed to manage ADHD. In rare instances, the use of stimulant medications has been linked to the development of psychotic symptoms. This is a case of a 13-year-old male diagnosed with ASD and comorbid ADHD, anxiety, and depression, who presented with an abrupt onset of psychosis, which manifested about a week after the initiation of lisdexamfetamine. The psychotic symptoms subsided upon discontinuation of lisdexamfetamine; however, there was a re-emergence of severe ADHD symptoms that proved resistant to non-stimulant medications. The patient experienced significant improvement without any recurrence of psychosis after being prescribed extended-release methylphenidate. Notably, there are no established clinical guidelines to assist in selecting one stimulant over another in the treatment of ADHD comorbid with ASD. The authors recommend considering the methylphenidate class of stimulants as a first-line treatment for ADHD in individuals with ASD, citing better tolerability compared to amphetamines.
