Examining drug poisoning in child and adolescent psychiatric patients: clinical analysis and pharmacy services.
Article in Frontiers in psychiatry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics and symptoms of drug poisoning in adolescents with psychiatric conditions, and provide valuable guidance for pharmacists in the prevention and treatment of adolescent drug poisoning. Methods: A total of 84 adolescent patients with drug poisoning were recruited from January 2021 to December 2023. Clinical data of drug poisoning patients were analyzed, and pharmaceutical service implications were discussed based on hospital settings and patient medication profiles. Results: Female adolescents constituted a higher proportion of drug poisoning cases than males. Over 50% cases involved the overdose of two or more drugs, with quantities ranging from several pills to over a hundred. The drugs most commonly involved in overdose were psychiatric medications, including antidepressants (50.0%), antipsychotics (41.7%), sedatives/hypnotics (35.7%), and mood stabilizers (26.2%). Poisoning symptoms predominantly affected the nervous system, such as dizziness, headache, drowsiness, and unsteady gait, with most patients showing improvement after symptomatic treatment (94.0%). Conclusion: Our study highlights the complex relationship between psychiatric disorders and intentional drug overdose among adolescents. Effective prevention strategies, including education on poison prevention, safe medication storage, and safety planning, are crucial for reducing intentional drug overdoses in this vulnerable population.
