Article in Genomic psychiatry : advancing science from genes to society, 2025. 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
The authors are, respectively, the founding and current Directors of the Lothian Birth Cohorts of 1921 and 1936. In this invited and, admittedly, self-regarding and necessarily self-citing piece, we enumerate and explicate some things we learned from working with the cohorts and their data. Some of the lessons are scientific results, some are to do with scientific practice, and some are more general reflections. We hope the paper provides a useful summary of some of the main findings from these too-many-papers-to-read cohorts and an enjoyable account of our building a research team and a network of collaborators. The original aim of assembling the cohorts was to fashion a tool to discover why some people's thinking skills aged better than others'. That tool, we discovered, had many additional uses.
