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
backgroundThe differential diagnosis of psychiatric disorders is relatively challenging for several reasons. In this context, we believe that task-based magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can serve as a tool for differential diagnosis. The aim of this study was to explore the commonalities in brain activities among individuals with psychiatric disorders and to identify the key brain regions that can distinguish between these disorders.
methodsThe PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, Web of Science, Scopus, PsycINFO, and Google Scholar databases were searched for whole-brain functional MRI studies that compared psychiatric patients and normal controls. The psychiatric disorders included schizophrenia (SCZ), bipolar disorder (BD), major depressive disorder (MDD), obsessive-compulsive disorder, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Studies using go-nogo paradigms were selected, we then conducted activation likelihood estimation (ALE) meta-analysis, factor analysis, and regression analysis on these studies subsequently.
resultsA total of 152 studies (108 with patients) were selected and a consistent pattern was found, that is, decreased activities in the same brain regions across six disorders. Factor analysis clustered six disorders into three pairs: SCZ and ASD, MDD and BD, and ADHD and BD. Furthermore, the heterogeneity of SCZ and ASD was located in the left and right thalamus; and the heterogeneity of MDD and BD was located in the thalamus, insula, and superior frontal gyrus.
conclusionThe results can lead to a new classification method for psychiatric disorders, benefit the differential diagnosis at an early stage, and help to understand the biobasis of psychiatric disorders.
