Pathological resting-state executive and language system perfusion in first-episode psychosis.
Article in NeuroImage. Clinical, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
background and hypothesisCortical (e.g., Broca's area and Wernicke's area) and subcortical (e.g., putamen) language-related areas and executive control areas (e.g., inferior frontal gyrus (IFG), dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC)) show functional and structural dysconnectivity in long-term psychosis. We examined whether resting-state basal perfusion levels revealed selective pathophysiology (likely hypo- and hyper-activation) of language-related and executive areas in first-episode psychosis (FEP). STUDY
designBasal resting-state perfusion was measured using pseudo-continuous Arterial Spin Labeling (pcASL). Relative cerebral blood flow (rCBF) was compared between 32 FEP and 34 matched healthy comparison (HC) individuals. Structural and functional MRI scans were acquired using a 3T Prisma scanner during the same session. STUDY
resultsWhole-brain comparison of resting rCBF identified 8 clusters with significant between-group differences. Reduced rCBF was found in executive control areas in left and right IFG, right DLPFC, and right parietal cortex. Increased rCBF was found in left and right temporal cortex (including Wernicke's area), and left and right putamen. A positive correlation was observed between auditory hallucination severity and rCBF in the left putamen.
conclusionsTo the degree that perfusion implies activation, language and auditory processing areas in bilateral temporal lobe and putamen showed pathological hyper-activity, and cognitive control areas (IFG, DLPFC, right parietal) showed pathological hypo-activity in FEP at rest. Pathological basal activity was present across the range of symptom severity, suggesting it may be a common underlying pathology for psychosis that may be targeted with non-invasive brain stimulation to normalize resting activity levels.
