Language in schizophrenia: relation with diagnosis, symptomatology and white matter tracts.
Article in NPJ schizophrenia, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 45 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Language deviations are a core symptom of schizophrenia. With the advances in computational linguistics, language can be easily assessed in exact and reproducible measures. This study investigated how language characteristics relate to schizophrenia diagnosis, symptom, severity and integrity of the white matter language tracts in patients with schizophrenia and healthy controls. Spontaneous speech was recorded and diffusion tensor imaging was performed in 26 schizophrenia patients and 22 controls. We were able to classify both groups with a sensitivity of 89% and a specificity of 82%, based on mean length of utterance and clauses per utterance. Language disturbances were associated with negative symptom severity. Computational language measures predicted language tract integrity in patients (adjusted R
