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

introductionLimited research has been conducted on the association between proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) use and psychiatric adverse events (AEs), leaving the understanding of PPIs-related psychiatric AEs in real-world settings unclear.

objectivesWe aim to identify psychiatric AEs highly relevant to five commonly prescribed PPIs and to delve into the clinical characteristics of the population experiencing psychiatric AEs, as well as the time-to-onset pattern of the reported AEs.

methodsWe performed disproportionality analysis to evaluate the PPI-related psychiatric AEs risk signal using data from the FDA adverse event reporting system. Linkage disequilibrium score regression, high-definition likelihood, and Bidirectional MR analyses were employed to evaluate genetic correlations and causality for the pairwise traits between indications for PPI therapy and three common psychiatric disorders.

resultsPsychiatric AEs were reported in 12.83% of all AE reports on PPIs. Disproportionality analysis identified multiple PPI-related psychiatric AE risk signals such as depressive disorder, bipolar disorder, and sleep disorder, with Omeprazole exhibiting the highest number of positive signals and cases (N = 386) and Rabeprazole the fewest (N = 28). Notably, we detected positive signals for suicide or self-injury-related AEs in three types of PPIs. Significant genetic correlations were revealed in peptic ulcer with major depressive disorder, peptic ulcer with schizophrenia, and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) with major depressive disorder. Bidirectional MR analyses identified significant causal relationships between MDD and peptic ulcer, and a potential bidirectional causal association between GERD and MDD.

conclusionsPPI-related psychiatric AEs may represent a non-negligible portion of overall PPI-related AEs. It is recommended to monitor and evaluate the safety of long-term PPI use in relation to psychiatric AEs.
