1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

In recent times, atypical antipsychotics are increasingly being used in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) for the management of neonatal delirium. As the recognition of delirium in NICU infants increases, caution should be exercised with use of antipsychotics for management, given associated adverse effects. Neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) is a rare adverse drug reaction associated with exposure to antipsychotics and other antidopaminergic medications. Most reported cases of NMS in pediatric patients have been in older children on antipsychotic medications. We present a case of a 10-month-old former preterm infant who developed clinical signs suggestive of NMS after exposure to olanzapine for treatment of delirium. Our case report details the clinical course of this infant, delves into the condition, and outlines some useful lessons for the clinician in the identification and management of this rare but life-threatening adverse effect.
