Cyclizine Toxicity and Misuse in an Adolescent With Eating Disorder and Depression: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2026. 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
Cyclizine is a first-generation H1 antihistamine widely used for the treatment of nausea and motion sickness. In addition to its antiemetic properties, it has anticholinergic and central nervous system effects that may confer psychoactive potential. Although generally regarded as a low-risk medication, increasing evidence suggests a potential for misuse, particularly among adolescents and individuals with mental health disorders or substance-use vulnerabilities. Published data on cyclizine toxicity are limited, and paediatric reports of intentional overdose remain scarce. We report a case of intentional cyclizine overdose in a 14-year-old girl with underlying mental health disorders, highlighting the clinical presentation, management considerations, including serial electrocardiographic assessment, and safeguarding implications. This case underscores the need for increased clinician awareness of cyclizine misuse and its potential harms in the paediatric population.
