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

Anhedonia is a prevalent symptom across many psychiatric disorders. The contemporary scope of anhedonia across various models includes interest, reward anticipation, motivation, effort expenditure, reward valuation, expectation, pleasure, satiation, and learning. In order to further elucidate the impact of anhedonia on treatment outcomes, quality of life, as well as brain function, validated tools to probe the various facets of anhedonia are necessary. This chapter evaluates assessment tools for anhedonia in clinical populations and in animals. Subjective clinical scales have been in use for decades, and as the construct of anhedonia evolved, contemporary scales were developed to integrate these new concepts. Clinical scales are useful for understanding the subjective experience of anhedonia but do not account for objective aspects of anhedonia, including implicit learning. Behavioral tasks that probe responses to rewarding stimuli have been useful to fill this gap and to delineate the specific brain processes underlying facets of anhedonia. Although there have been translational challenges in the assessments of anhedonia and reward deficits from preclinical to clinical (and vice versa), the multifaceted clinical scales and reward tasks provide valuable insights into the conceptualization of anhedonia and its neural basis across psychiatric disorders.
