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

Alterations in brain reactions to alcohol-related cues are a neurobiological characteristic of alcohol dependence (AD) and a prospective target for achieving substantial treatment effects. However, a robust prediction of the differences in inpatients' brain responses to alcohol cues during the treatment process is still required. This study offers a data-driven approach for classifying AD inpatients undertaking alcohol treatment protocols based on their brain responses to alcohol imagery with and without drinking actions. The brain activity of thirty inpatients with AD undergoing treatment was scanned using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) while seeing alcohol and matched non-alcohol images. The mean values of brain regions of interest (ROI) for alcohol-related brain responses were obtained using general linear modeling (GLM) and subjected to hierarchical clustering analysis. The proposed classification technique identified two distinct subgroups of inpatients. For the two types of cues, subgroup one exhibited significant activation in a wide range of brain regions, while subgroup two showed mainly decreased activation. The proposed technique may aid in detecting the vulnerability of the classified inpatient subgroups, which can suggest allocating the inpatients in the classified subgroups to more effective therapies and developing prognostic future relapse markers in AD.
