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.

Abstract

Identifying predictors of antidepressant response will facilitate the successful treatment of patients suffering from depression. Scopolamine produces robust antidepressant responses in unipolar and bipolar depression. Here we evaluate the potential for baseline self-ratings to predict treatment response to scopolamine. Fifty-one unipolar and bipolar patients participated in a double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover trial. Following a single-blind placebo session, participants randomly received P/S or S/P (P=3 placebo; S=3 scopolamine (4μg/kg) sessions). Mood-state self-ratings (Profile of Mood State (POMS) and Visual Analog Scales (VAS)) and depression severity (Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS)) were obtained before each infusion. Day 1 (baseline/placebo) self-ratings were used in a discriminant function analysis to identify linear combinations of individual items that predict response. The discriminant analysis significantly separated responders from non-responders in both the unipolar and bipolar diagnostic subgroups. The discriminant functions accurately classified over 85% of patients as responders/non-responders. The POMS depression subscale significantly correlated with clinical response, as did the VAS restlessness, sad, and irritated scales. These results indicate that self-report mood-ratings obtained before treatment can predict response outcome to scopolamine, and suggest that a constellation of mood-state features may be related to clinical response.
