Mechanism of imipenem-induced mental disorder: A meta-analysis.
Article in World journal of psychiatry, 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
backgroundImipenem is a highly effective carbapenem antibiotic, which is widely used in the treatment of many serious bacterial infections. At the same time, it can also cause some adverse reactions, mental abnormalities are the most concerned central nervous system adverse reactions. Different patients respond differently to imipenem, and the effect of imipenem on psychiatric disorders is unclear. Therefore, meta-analysis summarizing the results of multiple previous studies can provide stronger evidence support for clinical guidelines to guide clinical rational use of imipenem to minimize risks.
aimTo systematically review the effects of imipenem on mental-health disorders.
methodsMethod in Cochrane Library, Web of science, PubMed, ProQuest, and China's biomedical literature databases Wanfang, Weipu and China HowNet, the related literatures about the controlled trials of imipenem-induced mental disorders from the establishment of the database to May 2024 were searched; the included literatures were analyzed using RevMan 5.4 software; and the heterogeneity among the studies was also discussed.
resultsAfter reviewing the literature published between 2003 and 2017, seven controlled trials with a total of 550 patients were included, with 273 and 277 patients in the control and experimental groups, respectively. The sample size of the study ranged from a minimum of 30 cases to a maximum of 61 cases. Patients in the experimental group were treated with imipenem while the control group was treated with conventional drugs. Meta-analysis showed that the incidence of mental disorders in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group (odds ratio = 3.66, 95% confidence interval: 1.11-12.11,
conclusionImipenem can cause mental disorders in patients. However, the low quality of the included literature may have affected the final results. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a high-quality randomized controlled study with multiple samples to further confirm the mechanism of imipenem-induced mental disorders and provide effective guidance for clinical treatment.
