Pathomechanisms of depression in progressive supranuclear palsy.
Review in Journal of neural transmission (Vienna, Austria : 1996), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Depression is one of the most frequent neuropsychiatric symptoms in progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), a four-repeat tauopathy and most common atypical parkinsonian disorder, but its pathophysiology and pathogenesis are poorly understood. Pubmed/Medline was systematically analyzed until January 2023, with focus on the prevalence, major clinical features, neuroimaging findings and treatment options of depression in PSP. The average prevalence of depression in PSP is around 50%; it does usually not correlate with most other clinical parameters. Depression is associated with multi-regional patterns of morphometric gray matter variations, e.g., reduced thickness of temporo-parieto-occipital cortices, and altered functional orbitofrontal and medial frontal circuits with disturbances of mood-related brain networks. Unfortunately, no specific neuropathological data about depression in PSP are available. Antidepressive and electroconvulsive therapies are effective in improving symptoms; the efficacy of transcranial stimulation needs further confirmation. Depression in PSP is a common symptom, related to multi-regional patterns of cerebral disturbances and complex pathogenic mechanisms that deserve further elucidation as a basis for adequate treatment to improve the quality of life in this fatal disease.
