Molecular Basis of Anxiety: A Comprehensive Review of 2014-2024 Clinical and Preclinical Studies.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Anxiety disorders are among the most common psychiatric conditions that significantly impair one's quality of life and place a significant burden on healthcare systems. Conventional treatments have certain restraints, such as potential side effects and limited efficacy. Τhe underlying pathophysiological mechanisms of anxiety are not fully understood. A comprehensive literature search was performed in MEDLINE and Scopus databases for original English-language articles published between January 2014 and December 2024. Study selection, data extraction, and screening were independently carried out by multiple investigators using predefined criteria. Our review aimed to help better comprehend the molecular basis of anxiety, focusing on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, serotonergic signaling, and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) neurotransmission. In addition, we addressed the role of epigenetics and pharmacogenomics in personalized treatment. Although novel anxiety treatments are promising, they are predominantly preclinical and highly heterogeneous, which poses a challenge to achieving reliable therapeutic efficacy. Our findings could potentially contribute to the development of new therapeutic interventions. Further research is warranted, especially in human subjects, with an aim to combine genetic and epigenetic profiles to refine treatment approaches and develop innovative therapeutics.
