1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Anticholinergic pharmacological agents are commonly misused because of their euphoric effects, increased energy, improved mood, and enhanced social interactions. Some herbal products with anticholinergic properties can also be abused for their psychoactive effects. One such ornamental plant is Brugmansia suaveolens, which contains alkaloids including atropine and scopolamine and can produce toxic effects. This case report describes a male patient with Brugmansia suaveolens abuse and coexisting multiple substance use disorders. The patient reported consuming a decoction of Brugmansia suaveolens leaves and flowers as a daily tea for four years to obtain relief. He experienced anticholinergic symptoms, including drowsiness, sedation, agitation, ataxia, dry mouth, palpitations, fever, and visual and auditory hallucinations while under the influence of the plant. The patient was discharged following a four-week treatment course. Plants like Brugmansia suaveolens, which have anticholinergic but toxic properties, may be misused, especially by individuals with a history of multiple substance use disorders.
