Marked Improvement of Chronic Motor and Phonic Tics With Cariprazine in an Adult With Tourette Syndrome With Comorbid Bipolar Disorder: 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
Tourette syndrome (TS) is a neuropsychiatric disorder characterized by motor and phonic tics, often complicated by comorbid conditions and treatment-related adverse effects. We report a 61-year-old male with long-standing TS and comorbid bipolar disorder who experienced persistent, functionally impairing tics despite multiple prior therapies. Following initiation and titration of cariprazine, the patient demonstrated marked and sustained improvement in tic severity over approximately two years, with good tolerability and stable mood symptoms. This case highlights a potential role for cariprazine in the management of tic disorders in patients with complex neuropsychiatric comorbidities.
