Potential Role of Oestrogen Modulation in the Treatment of Neurocognitive Deficits in Schizophrenia.
Article in CNS drugs, 2016. 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
Cognitive deficits are prevalent in schizophrenia, and these deficits represent a disabling aspect of the illness for which there are no current effective treatments. Recent work has shown that sex hormone levels correlate with brain activity and cognitive abilities differentially in patients with schizophrenia relative to healthy control groups. There is emerging evidence suggesting that oestrogen-based therapies may be useful in reversing the cognitive deficits associated with schizophrenia. To date, the results from clinical trials using oestrogen-based therapies to reverse cognitive impairment in schizophrenia have shown that the selective oestrogen receptor modulator raloxifene may be useful to improve attention, memory, learning and the associated brain activity in chronically ill men and women with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. While these findings of cognitive enhancement with a selective oestrogen receptor modulator in people with schizophrenia are encouraging, additional studies will be required to replicate the initial results, assess the time frame of treatment effects, identify biomarkers in subsets of patients who may be more likely to optimally respond to treatment, and identify a more precise mechanism of action, which may include anti-inflammatory effects of oestrogen-based treatments.
