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

Depression is a common psychiatric comorbidity among patients with epilepsy (PWE), affecting more than a third of PWE. Management of depression may improve quality of life of epileptic patients. Unfortunately, available antidepressants worsen epilepsy by reducing the seizure threshold. This situation demands search of new safer target for combined directorate of epilepsy and comorbid depression. A system biology approach may be useful to find novel pathways/markers for the cure of both epilepsy and associated depression via analyzing available genomic and proteomic information. Hence, the system biology approach using curated 64 seed genes involved in temporal lobe epilepsy and mental depression was applied. The interplay of 600 potential proteins was revealed by the Disease Module Detection (DIAMOnD) Algorithm for the treatment of both epilepsy and comorbid depression using these seed genes. The gene enrichment analysis of seed and diamond genes through DAVID suggested 95 pathways. Selected pathways were refined based on their syn or anti role in epilepsy and depression. In conclusion, total 8 pathways and 27 DIAMOnD genes/proteins were finally deduced as potential new targets for modulation of selected pathways to manage epilepsy and comorbid depression.
