Two Long-Acting Antipsychotics in a Patient with Treatment-Resistant Schizophrenia: A Case Report.
Article in Clinics and practice, 2025. 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
Treatment-resistant schizophrenia (TRS) poses significant therapeutic challenges due to persistent symptoms, poor adherence, and high relapse rates. Long-acting injectable (LAI) antipsychotics offer a promising approach, yet limited evidence exists regarding the combination of two LAI formulations. We report the case of a 62-year-old woman with TRS, characterized by recurrent hospitalizations and inadequate responses to oral and monotherapy treatments. During her latest hospitalization, she received alternating intramuscular administrations of haloperidol decanoate (100 mg/28 days) and aripiprazole (400 mg/28 days). The dual LAI strategy resulted in a marked improvement in psychotic symptoms, functional recovery, and treatment adherence, with no reported side effects. This case highlights the potential benefits of dual LAI therapy in managing TRS, particularly in patients with non-adherence to oral medications or limited response to standard treatments. Additional studies are required to evaluate the long-term effectiveness and safety of this innovative therapeutic approach.
