Aripiprazole-Induced Priapism in a Pediatric Patient: A Case Report.

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
Drug-induced non-ischemic priapism is a rare but critical condition in children. Aripiprazole, an atypical antipsychotic, has been associated with priapism, mostly in adults. Prompt recognition is essential to prevent permanent sequelae. An 8-year-old boy, with a complex past medical history including prior dystonic reactions, presented with acute dystonia and subsequent priapism following inadvertent administration of Aripiprazole. The erection persisted for approximately five hours, partially responsive to Diphenhydramine and Benztropine. Urologic evaluation confirmed ischemic priapism. Conservative management was successful, and no surgical intervention was needed. Doppler ultrasound of the penis showed normal flow without thrombosis. The patient remained clinically stable, experiencing only brief, intermittent episodes of erection, each of which resolved with conservative management. This case underscores the potential for Aripiprazole-induced priapism in the pediatric population, despite its generally favorable safety profile. Early recognition and timely urologic consultation are essential for optimal outcomes. When identified promptly, conservative management may be effective in avoiding invasive intervention.
