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
backgroundSchizophrenia (SZ) is a debilitating mental illness with uncertain etiology and challenges in early diagnosis and treatment outcomes. For the first time, we applied a multiomics techniques to explore plasma exosomal markers of SZ and underlying molecular mechanisms.
methodsExosomes were separated and identified from ten drug-naive first-episode SZ patients and ten healthy controls. Then small RNA-seq and high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry technology were used to detect the profiles of microRNAs (miRNAs) and proteomics, respectively. The integrative multiomics analysis was further performed.
resultsA total of 167 differentially expressed miRNAs (DE miRNAs) were identified in plasma exosomes from drug-naive first-episode SZ patients. The potential target genes of DE miRNAs were predicted, and GO and KEGG enrichment analysis showed that they were associated with RNA catabolic process, proteasome-mediated ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process, etc. Proteomic analysis identified 274 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs), and DEPs were mainly enriched in immune response and some signaling pathways. The combination of Top 10 DE miRNAs/ DEPs both had good values to diagnose SZ. Importantly, miRNA-protein ceRNA networks were constructed by integrating multiomics, one consisting of 21 downregulated DE miRNAs and 21 upregulated DEPs and the other consisting of 64 upregulated DE miRNAs and 86 downregulated DEPs in SZ patients.
conclusionsIn conclusion, our study delineates the multiomics landscape of plasma exosomes in first-episode drug-naïve SZ, and constructed two ceRNA networks (21 downregulated miRNAs/21 upregulated proteins and 64 upregulated miRNAs/86 downregulated proteins), providing novel insights into the early diagnosis and treatment strategies of SZ. These findings hold promise for advancing diagnostic and therapeutic strategies in SZ management.
