Neural correlates of emotional reactivity and regulation in youth with and without anxiety.
Article in Depression and anxiety, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
backgroundYouth with anxiety disorders struggle with managing emotions relative to peers, but the neural basis of this difference has not been examined.
methodsYouth (M
resultsGroups did not differ on emotional reactivity or regulation. However, fronto-limbic activation after viewing aversive imagery with and without regulation, as well as affect ratings without regulation, were higher for anxious youth. Neither group demonstrated age-related changes in regulation, though anxious youth became less reactive with age. Stronger amygdala-ventromedial prefrontal cortex connectivity related to greater anxiety in control youth, but less anxiety in anxious youth.
conclusionAnxious youth regulated when instructed, but regulation ability did not relate to age. Viewing aversive imagery related to heightened fronto-limbic activation even after reappraisal. Emotion dysregulation in youth anxiety disorders may stem from heightened emotionality and potent bottom-up neurobiological responses to aversive stimuli. Findings suggest the importance of treatments focused on both reducing initial emotional reactivity and bolstering regulatory capacity.
