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 last decade has witnessed a burgeoning interest in studies exploring the link between psychosis spectrum disorders (PSD) and altered immune function. While epidemiological and clinical studies point to evidence for increased peripheral inflammatory markers in PSD, it is not clear whether peripheral inflammation correlates with central inflammation in the brain. Furthermore, these studies are confounded by multiple methodological and disorder-related factors such as antipsychotic medications, smoking, obesity, and metabolic syndrome, all of which independently contribute to altered inflammation. Clinical and animal studies provide encouraging evidence that inflammatory processes can define trans-diagnostic neuropsychiatric domains such as positive/negative valence, affective dysregulation, and cognitive impairment. In this commentary, we speculate on whether inflammation-mediated pathways may serve as a final-common pathway for environmental risk factors of early-childhood adversity, adolescent cannabis use, social exclusion, and on the possible mechanisms mediating the pathophysiology of PSD. We propose an integrative framework and suggest future research strategies that may help disentangle the link between immune dysfunction and PSD.
