An Unexpected Phenomenon: A Case of Citalopram-Induced Dyskinesia.
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
Dyskinetic movements are characterized as hyperkinetic, repetitive movements of the extremities, facial, and oral musculature, most associated with prolonged dopamine D2 receptor blockade. In rare instances, dyskinetic movements can be brought on by selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) usage via an indirect D2 blockade mechanism, mimicking the D2 blockade observed with dopamine receptor blocking agents (DRBAs), such as in first-generation antipsychotics. This mimicked D2 blockade by SSRIs is said to be due to increased tonic inhibition by serotonin on dopaminergic neurons in the dopaminergic pathways of the brain, specifically the nigrostriatal pathway. In this case report, we look at a patient with a history of cerebral palsy who developed acute dyskinetic movements after short-term citalopram usage. The objective is to bring attention to the possible extrapyramidal side effects (EPS) of SSRI usage.
