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

22q11.2 deletion syndrome (DS) is a complex developmental disorder with a high incidence of psychiatric illnesses, including schizophrenia and mood disorders. Recent studies have identified Guanine Nucleotide Binding Protein (G protein) Beta Polypeptide 1-Like (GNB1L), located within the 1.5 Mbp 22q11.2 DS critical region, as a candidate liability gene for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. In this study, we used mRNA expression measurements in Han Chinese postmortem temporal cortex and linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis to show that GNB1L is regulated by a cis-acting genetic variant within the 3'-region of the gene. Significantly, this variant is located within an LD block that contains all of the common SNPs previously shown to associate with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder in Han Chinese and Caucasian populations. Contrary to our expectations, re-analysis of previously published case-control study data in light of our mRNA expression results implies that the GNB1L high-expression allele is the risk allele for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder in the Han Chinese population.
