Attenuated niacin response is associated with a subtype of first-episode drug-naïve psychosis characterized as serious negative symptoms.

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
Although the phenomenon of attenuated niacin response (ANR) has been widely replicated in some patients with first-episode psychosis (FEP), its relevance to the negative symptoms (NS) of psychosis remains unclear. Total of 240 patients with drug-naïve FEP and 101 healthy controls (HCs) were recruited, and 209 were followed up for 1 year. Psychotic symptoms were assessed using the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS), and niacin-induced responses were measured using laser Doppler flowmetry. We calculated the log-transform EC
