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

Several studies describe a strong association between structural and functional abnormalities of the cerebellum and psychiatric disorders. It is possible to find investigations especially in cases of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety disorders, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The involvement of the cerebellum in these conditions is also supported by clinical, functional, and structural imaging studies. The present narrative review aims to discuss and highlight the role of the cerebellum in these disorders, gathering evidence on the possible locations and connections of the affected cerebellar areas and their implications in the cognitive, emotional, and behavioral domains.
