CREB: A Promising Therapeutic Target for Treating Psychiatric Disorders.
Synthesis in Current neuropharmacology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
Psychiatric disorders are complex, multifactorial illnesses. It is challenging for us to understand the underlying mechanism of psychiatric disorders. In recent years, the morbidity of psychiatric disorders has increased yearly, causing huge economic losses to the society. Although some progress, such as psychotherapy drugs and electroconvulsive therapy, has been made in the treatment of psychiatric disorders, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive and autism spectrum disorders, antidepressants and psychotropic drugs have the characteristics of negative effects and high rate of relapse. Therefore, researchers continue to seek suitable interventions. cAMP response element binding protein (CREB) belongs to a protein family and is widely distributed in the majority of brain cells that function as a transcription factor. It has been demonstrated that CREB plays an important role in neurogenesis, synaptic plasticity, and neuronal growth. This review provides a 10-year update of the 2013 systematic review on the multidimensional roles of CREB-mediated transcriptional signaling in psychiatric disorders. We also summarize the classification of psychiatric disorders and elucidate the involvement of CREB and related downstream signalling pathways in psychiatric disorders. Importantly, we analyse the CREB-related signal pathways involving antidepressants and antipsychotics to relieve the pathological process of psychiatric disorders. This review emphasizes that CREB signalling may have a vast potential to treat psychiatric disorders like depression. Furthermore, it would be helpful for the development of potential medicine to make up for the imperfection of current antidepressants and antipsychotics.
