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

Genetic vulnerability to psychiatric illness extends across major psychiatric illness. Neuregulin 1 (NRG1) is a large gene on chromosome 8p, that has been identified as a susceptibility factor in bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. In particular, a core at risk haplotype has received considerable attention for a putative role in the pathophysiology of the major psychoses (schizophrenia and bipolar disorder). This core haplotype can be represented by three markers 478B14-848, 420M9-1395, and SNP8NRG221533. We genotyped 312 families with bipolar probands, and 120 families with schizophrenia probands. Association of the core haplotype was tested for with age-at-onset and with three phenotypes: major psychosis, schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder. Neither age of onset (P = 0.893) nor the major psychosis phenotype (P = 0.374) was associated with the core haplotype in the overall sample. Ours was the first study to investigate the NRG1 core haplotype with age of onset of major psychoses, and despite our preliminary negative findings, this area deserves further investigation.
