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

Schizophrenia (SCZ) is a severe psychotic disorder that affects up to 1% of the US population and it is associated with progressive impairment in social functioning and cognition. Nonetheless, despite its high burden, the pathophysiology of SCZ, including the genetic and biological mechanisms underlying the development and manifestation of the disorder, remains largely elusive. Endophenotypes are subtypes of biological markers that are more closely related to the genetic vulnerability for a disorder (e.g., SCZ). Recently, research on endophenotypes has identified several parameters that may prove useful in shedding light over the underlying neurobiology of SCZ. In this article, we provide an overview of the most established SCZ endophenotypes in the domains of neurocognition (attention deficits, working and verbal declarative memory dysfunctions) and neurophysiology (pre-pulse inhibition, anti-saccade impairment, event-related potential deficits) along with some novel, sleep-based measures (reduced sleep spindles and sleep slow waves). We also discuss recent conceptual advances in the field that may lead to novel, personalized treatment interventions for patients affected by this devastating mental illness.
