Review in Neurotherapeutics : the journal of the American Society for Experimental NeuroTherapeutics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Substance use disorder (SUD) remains a critical public health issue characterized by high rates of relapse and limited effective pharmacotherapies, particularly for non-opioid substances. A key challenge in addressing SUD lies in the persistent neuroadaptations within the brain's reward circuitry. The endocannabinoid (eCB) system plays a crucial role in modulating reward and reinforcement processes and is disrupted by chronic drug exposure. Recent work highlights the therapeutic potential of indirectly modulating cannabinoid 1 (CB1) receptor signaling by targeting eCB-metabolizing enzymes, fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) and monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL), to restore homeostatic eCB tone. We review and synthesize findings from both genetic and pharmacological studies, highlighting the contributions of FAAH and MAGL across major classes of abused substances and considering their potential as therapeutic targets for SUD treatment.
