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

Tardive dyskinesia and dystonia are intractable extrapyramidal symptoms caused by the blockade of dopamine receptors by antipsychotic drugs. In addition to the reduction or discontinuation of the causative drug, valbenazine for tardive dyskinesia and botulinum toxin for tardive dystonia have been reported to be effective. However, their efficacy has not been fully demonstrated. In this study, we report the case of a female patient with bipolar disorder, valbenazine-resistant tardive dystonia, and tardive dyskinesia who achieved improvement in extrapyramidal symptoms with electroconvulsive therapy. Additionally, we conducted a narrative literature review on the safety and efficacy of electroconvulsive therapy for tardive dyskinesia and dystonia.
