The value of multimodal neuroimaging in the diagnosis and treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder: a narrative review.
Review in Translational psychiatry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a delayed-onset or prolonged persistent psychiatric disorder caused by individuals experiencing an unusually threatening or catastrophic stressful event or situation. Due to its long duration and recurrent nature, unimodal neuroimaging tools such as computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET), and electroencephalography (EEG) have been widely used in the diagnosis and treatment of PTSD for early intervention. However, as compared with an unimodal approach, a multimodal imaging approach can better capture integrated neural mechanisms underlying the occurrence and development of PTSD, including predisposing factors, changes in neural activity, and physiological mechanisms of symptoms. Moreover, a multimodal neuroimaging approach can aid the diagnosis and treatment of PTSD, facilitate searching for biomarkers at different stages of PTSD, and explore biomarkers for symptomatic improvement. However, at present, the majority of PTSD studies remain unimodal, while the combination of multimodal brain imaging data with machine learning will become an important direction for future research.
