Psychotic behavior in normal pressure hydrocephalus.
Article in Indian 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
Normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) usually presents with progressive gait impairment, urinary incontinence, and cognitive deficits. Many studies have shown that NPH can mimic other disorders like Parkinson disease with tremors and rigidity. In this report, we present our experience with three patients who had psychotic behavior and were treated with psychiatric medications but were subsequently investigated and found to have NPH. After lumboperitoneal shunting, all the three became normal and were even able to stop the psychiatric medications completely. The message is that NPH can mimic a psychiatric disorder and awareness about this well treatable condition is important especially among the psychiatrists and geriatricians.
