The future of immunopsychiatry: Three milestones to clinical innovation.
Article in Brain, behavior, & immunity - health, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Psychoneuroimmunology, the area of research dedicated to understanding the fundamental interactions between the central nervous system and the immune system, has given rise to the development of Immunopsychiatry, a new discipline which harnesses the immune system to produce beneficial outcomes for mental health problems. Immunopsychiatry has the potential to become a clinically relevant specialty area in psychiatric practice, but has not yet been adopted by the wider mental health community. This paper aims to map out the future trajectory of Immunopsychiatry on its road towards science-to-policy knowledge translation and clinical implementation. Three critical milestones which will need to be reached in order for Immunopsychiatry to fulfil its promise for clinical innovation are discussed: a clear definition of patients who fall within the immunopsychiatric continuum; demonstration of well-defined clinical benefit and incorporation in clinical guidelines; and convergence with other paradigms in biological psychiatry.
