[Serotonin syndrome secondary to the association of paroxetine and amitriptyline: a case report].
Review in The Pan African medical journal, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Serotonin syndrome is an iatrogenic disorder induced by serotonergic drug. It is characterised by a symptomatic polymorphism that may create confusion with other clinical conditions, delaying diagnosis and putting the vital prognosis at risk. In light of a case report and a literature review, we here report the clinical case of a patient presenting with confusion, psychomotor agitation, hyperreflexia and spontaneous myoclonus following simultaneous use of paroxetine and amitriptyline. The diagnosis of serotonin syndrome was made after ruling out other possible diagnoses. The patient was admitted to the intensive care unit. This clinical case highlights the importance of thoroughly understanding the clinical manifestations of serotonin syndrome to ensure early and appropriate therapeutic management.
