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

Identification of cell type-specific and temporally dynamic regulatory features of schizophrenia (SCZ) risk genes is essential for advancing mechanistic neurobiological studies. This study systematically dissected the genetic architecture and neurodevelopmental mechanisms of SCZ by integrating genome-wide association study (GWAS) data from European (N = 130,644) and East Asian (N = 30,761) population, alongside multi-omics and single-cell sequencing analyses. Cross-method validation identified seven core genes (e.g., MDK, RERE, ERBB4), with RERE exhibiting a notably high eQTL-SCZ colocalization probability of 92.8-93.9%. Single-cell and epigenetic analyses reveal that the spatiotemporal dynamics of RERE may lead to differences in its mediated SCZ disease risk at the levels of genetic variation and transcriptional regulation. Cleavage Under Targets and Tagmentation (CUT&Tag) confirmed that RERE directly regulates synaptic genes such as PPP4R3B and RPS27L, and its co-expression network was found to be strongly linked to SCZ risk. This study unveils a RERE-mediated epigenetic-neurodevelopmental axis and suggests that GABAergic neurons may be a potential new target for the treatment of SCZ. Future validation using organoid models and exploration of clinical translation are warranted.
