Expression pattern of long non-coding RNAs in treatment-naïve and medicated schizophrenia patients.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Schizophrenia is a disabling mental disorder that affects 1% of people over their lifetime. The etiology and mechanism of schizophrenia are very complex, and many genes are involved in many different signaling pathways in the etiology of this disease. According to recent studies, one of the important mechanisms altered in this disorder is the regulation of immune system and the inflammation mechanism. In the present study, we evaluated the peripheral blood expression pattern of four lncRNAs and three protein-coding genes in the treatment- naïve patients, and medicated patients compared with sex and age-matched controls. In the medicated-patients, expression levels of IFNG, IL18RAP, AC007278.2 were significantly up-regulated (P < 0.05); and the expression level of IFNG-AS1-001 was significantly down-regulated compared to healthy controls (P < 0.05). However, levels of IL18R1, AC007278.3 and IFNG-AS1-003 were not different between these groups. In the treatment-naïve patients, IFNG, IL18R1, IL18RAP, IFNG-AS1-001, AC007278.2, and AC007278.3 were significantly up-regulated compared to controls. On the other hand, IFNG-AS1-003 was significantly down-regulated in the treatment-naïve patients compared to controls. Based on the Spearman correlation matrix, there was a significant correlation between genes in the treatment-naïve patients. We also showed the high sensitivity and specificity of IFNG-AS1-003, IFNG, IL18R1, and AC007278.3 in the identification of treatment-naïve patients from controls. The current study contributes further evidence to the understanding of the role of lncRNAs in the pathogenesis of schizophrenia. Future research is necessary to establish the validity of lncRNAs as peripheral markers for this condition.
