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

purposeCytochrome P450 (CYP450) enzymes metabolize selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) drugs used in treatment of depression. Variants in these genes may impact treatment efficacy and tolerability. The purpose of this study was 2-fold: to systematically review the literature for evidence supporting CYP450 genotyping to guide SSRI treatment for major depression, and, where evidence is inadequate, to suggest future research.

methodsWe searched MEDLINE(R) and other databases for studies addressing five key questions suggested by the Evaluation of Genomic Applications in Practice and Prevention Working Group. Eligibility criteria were defined, and studies were reviewed independently by paired researchers. A conceptual model was developed to guide future research.

resultsReview of 1200 abstracts led to the final inclusion of 37 articles. The evidence indicates relatively high analytic sensitivity and specificity of tests detecting a subset of polymorphisms of CYP2D6, 2C19, 2C8, 2C9, and 1A1. We found marginal evidence regarding a clinical association between CYP450 variants and SSRI metabolism, efficacy, and tolerability in the treatment of depression.

conclusionsCurrent evidence does not support the use of CYP450 genotyping to guide SSRI treatment of patients with depression. Studies are proposed that will effectively guide decision-making in the area of CYP450 testing in depression, and genetic testing more generally.
