Acute liver failure and hemolytic anemia induced by quetiapine and aripiprazole overdose in a patient with schizophrenia and metastatic breast cancer: a unique 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
This case report describes a rare situation in which a patient with schizophrenia and metastatic breast cancer experienced acute liver failure and hemolytic anemia caused by an overdose of quetiapine and aripiprazole. On the day of admission, the patient received lipid emulsion infusion, continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), and blood perfusion. After these treatments, the patient's consciousness improved from mild coma to full awareness. However, 48 hours after admission, the patient developed hemolytic anemia and acute liver failure. Following supportive treatments like plasma exchange, bilirubin adsorption, washed red blood cell transfusion, and low-dose dexamethasone for inflammation, the patient recovered and was discharged. This is the first reported case of hemolytic anemia and acute liver failure caused by mixed toxicity of quetiapine and aripiprazole in an adult patient. We analyze the characteristics of this case to enhance awareness of toxicity from atypical antipsychotics like quetiapine and aripiprazole, and to heighten vigilance regarding the potential risks of combined medication in patients with underlying liver disease, thereby improving the success rate of treatment.
