Seizure Prophylaxis After Intracerebral Hemorrhage in a Patient With Psychiatric Illness: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
Psychiatric comorbidities are highly prevalent in patients with epilepsy. This can complicate the management of seizures, as antiseizure medications (ASMs) can interact with psychotropic drugs or worsen psychiatric symptoms. We report the case of a 70-year-old woman with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder who presented with acute confusion and was found to have an elevated serum lithium level and an acute right temporal lobe intraparenchymal hemorrhage. Levetiracetam was initiated for seizure prophylaxis but was discontinued due to concern for psychiatric side effects. Oxcarbazepine was started and provided seizure protection with better psychiatric tolerability. This case illustrates the unique challenges of seizure prophylaxis in patients with psychiatric comorbidities.
