The interictal dysphoric disorder of epilepsy: a still open debate.
Review in Current neurology and neuroscience reports, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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.
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
Mood disorders represent a frequently encountered comorbidity in epilepsy, but the issue of phenomenology of depression is still matter of debate, having relevant implications in terms of treatment and prognosis. The interictal dysphoric disorder has been described by pre-modern psychiatry and recently revitalized by behavioral neurology identifying a pleomorphic pattern of symptoms claimed to be typical of patients with epilepsy. The present paper reviews current literature on this subject. A number of variables seem to be implicated in the complex and pleomorphic nature of interictal dysphoric disorder such as the high comorbidity between mood and anxiety, the pathophysiology of epilepsy with peri-ictal behavioral symptoms, and the psychotropic effect of antiepileptic drugs. Further studies identifying specific behavioral endophenotypes may have practical implications in terms of prognosis and tailored treatment strategies.
