Meta-analysis of pharmacogenetic clinical decision support systems for the treatment of major depressive disorder.
Synthesis in The pharmacogenomics journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 3 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
The study aimed to conduct a meta-analysis of studies comparing pharmacogenetically guided dosing of antidepressants with empiric standard of care. Publications referring to genotype-guided antidepressant therapy were identified via PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane databases from the inception of the databases to 2021. In addition, bibliographies of all articles were manually searched for additional references not identified in primary searches. Studies comparing clinical outcomes between two groups of patients who received antidepressant treatment were included in meta-analysis. Analysis of the data revealed statistically significant differences between the experimental group receiving pharmacogenetically guided dosing and the empirically treated controls. Specifically, genotype-guided treatment significantly improved response and remission of patients after both eight and twelve weeks of therapy, whereas no effect on the development of adverse drug reactions was observed. This meta-analysis indicates that the use of preemptive genotyping to guide dosing of antidepressants might increase treatment efficacy.
