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

Neuroimaging is a powerful noninvasive method for studying brain alterations in bipolar disorder (BD). To date, most neuroimaging studies of BD have included smaller cross-sectional samples reporting case versus control comparisons, revealing small to moderate effect sizes. In this narrative review, we discuss the current state of structural neuroimaging studies using magnetic resonance imaging, which inform our understanding of altered brain trajectories in BD across the lifespan. Alternative methodologies such as those that model patient deviations from age-specific norms are discussed, which may help derive new markers of BD pathophysiology. We discuss evidence from neuroimaging genetics and transcriptomics studies, which attempt to bridge the gap between macroscale brain variations and underlying microscale neurodevelopmental mechanisms. We conclude with a look toward the future and how ambitious investments in longitudinal, deeply phenotyped, population-based cohorts can improve modeling of complex clinical factors and provide more clinically actionable brain markers for BD.
