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

The accelerated aging hypothesis of schizophrenia posits that physiological changes throughout the body that are associated with normal aging occur at an earlier age in individuals with schizophrenia. Testing this hypothesis has been limited by problems measuring biological age. Recently, a method using DNA methylation levels at 353 genomic sites to produce "DNA methylation age", an estimate of tissue biological age, was described and validated. We used this method to test the hypothesis in the postmortem superior temporal gyrus of 22 non-psychiatric control and 22 schizophrenia subjects. DNA methylation age correlated with chronological age in both non-psychiatric control (
