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

Psychotic depression is an identified subtype of major depression that has many features of a distinct psychiatric disorder. Recent studies support previous findings that psychotic depression is associated with a less favorable course of illness. Moreover, the presence of a single psychotic symptom appears to predict decreased responsiveness to antidepressant monotherapy. Recent studies also support biological differences between psychotic and non-psychotic depression. Previous findings of greater HPA axis dysregulation are supported by evidence of diminished cortisol suppression with the mineralocorticoid antagonist fludrocortisone in psychotic depression. Moreover, a functional neuroimaging study demonstrated greater activation in parahippocampal and tempoparietal regions in psychotic depression during a memory task. In support of several previous treatment studies, a recent meta-analysis of studies that compared an antidepressant-antipsychotic combination to antidepressants or antipsychotics alone found a therapeutic advantage with the combined treatment over monotherapy. A recent clinical trial suggests that mifepristone, a glucocorticoid antagonist, may be an effective adjunctive treatment for psychotic depression.
