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

Schizophrenia (SCZ) is a severe mental illness influenced by gene-environment interactions (GEI). However, little is known about how GEI mediates SCZ. The present study aimed to examine the underlying mechanism of SCZ mediated by GEI. We found that a single environmental factor (two-week adolescent social isolation) or genetic factor (the heterozygous Rims1 knockout mice) did not induce SCZ-like behaviors. Interestingly, two-week adolescent social isolation successfully caused SCZ-like behaviors in heterozygous Rims1 knockout mice, which can be rescued by anti-SCZ drugs. RNA-seq analysis further revealed that synaptic vesicle-related biological processes and target genes were enriched in the hippocampus of GEI animal model mice, which was accompanied by disturbed excitatory synaptic neurotransmission. Finally, the Nrg1 gene was decreased in our RNA-seq analysis, and supplementation of Nrg1 ameliorated SCZ-like behaviors in heterozygous Rims1 socially isolated mice. Our findings establish a novel GEI animal model and offer a potential therapeutic target in the treatment of SCZ.
