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

Pharmacogenetic studies in mood disorders are raising increasing interest, after the first findings of a significant association between antidepressant response and a functional polymorphism in the upstream regulatory region of the serotonin transporter gene (SERTPR). However, the results of published studies are not unequivocal. The reasons of these discordances could be various: the small samples, which could affect the power to detect a good effect size, the use of different and often not comparable scales and methodologies to assess the response rates. Notwithstanding all these limitations, the choice of candidate genes involved in antidepressant response is one of the crucial steps to target future research. In the present paper, we reviewed the literature concerning pharmacogenetic studies on antidepressant response. This analysis evidenced a number of studies consistently confirming the association of the SERTPR short variant with a poorer response to antidepressants, at least for the Caucasian samples. Further unreplicated positive findings included tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH), G-protein beta(3)-subunit (Gbeta(3)) and serotonin receptor 2A gene polymorphisms. Through the review, we also suggested possible candidate genes for future studies, which are involved in the main monoaminergic neurotransmitters pathways (norepinephrine, dopamine, serotonin), in substance P, neurokinines and glutamate systems, in the intracellular signal transduction pathway, in the phosphorylation process and in the control of the transcriptional activity system.
