[Psychiatric aspects of commercially available products containing cannabidiol].
Review in Der Nervenarzt, 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
backgroundCannabidiol (CBD) has gained sustained public, medical, and scientific attention in recent years. The prevalence of use of commercially available products containing CBD (CPC) is correspondingly high.
objectivesOverview of the benefits and risks of CPC, taking into account certain aspects related to CBD as a pharmaceutical active ingredient. MATERIALS AND
methodsSelective literature search in the PubMed database.
resultsCurrently, only one primarily CBD-containing drug is approved in Germany (Epidyolex®). CBD demonstrates good safety and tolerability. Elevated transaminases, sedation, decreased appetite, diarrhea, sleep disturbances, infections, and weight loss are possible side effects. CBD modulates the endocannabinoid system and interacts with numerous other molecular targets. CBD is metabolized via CYP2C19, CYP3A4, and UGT. The potential for pharmacokinetic interactions with CBD has not been well studied, but is theoretically high. The potential for abuse of CBD is negligible when administered orally, but should be investigated more thoroughly for inhalation and higher-dose use. Studies have found significant discrepancies between the stated and actual CBD content in many CPC; THC was frequently detected. There is no evidence supporting the health benefits typically claimed by manufacturers for ≤ 4.3 mg of oral CBD/kg/day, but there are indications of significant hepatotoxicity at ≥ 4.3 mg of oralCBD/kg/day.
conclusionThere is no robust evidence of health benefits associated with CPC. However, given the levels of exposure, product deficiencies, and the EFSA safety concerns, it must be assumed that there are relevant health risks (particularly hepatotoxicity) associated with the use of CPC.
