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

Postictal psychosis (PIP) is a serious, often unrecognized complication of epilepsy. Early diagnosis and intervention can prevent life-threatening outcomes. We report the case of a 26-year-old woman with childhood-onset frontal lobe epilepsy who attempted suicide, during a postictal psychotic episode, several days after undergoing inpatient video-EEG monitoring. This case presents a real-world scenario with clear guidelines for the on-call neurologist who will need to accurately diagnose and confidently manage PIP with psychotropic medications. Moreover, this case may stimulate discussion about the complex relationship between epilepsy and psychosis.
