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

This study aimed to evaluate the antidepressant-like effects of Gami-Soyosan (GSS) in a corticosterone-induced mouse model of depression. Behavioral assessments, including the forced swim test and tail suspension test, demonstrated that GSS significantly reduced immobility, indicating improved coping behaviors comparable to those of fluoxetine. Serum analysis revealed that GSS lowered pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-6, IL-1β, and TNF-α, indicating an attenuation of systemic inflammatory cytokine responses in this model. Metabolomic profiling further showed that GSS modulated amino acid and nitrogen-related pathways, including branched-chain amino acids, arginine, and histidine/β-alanine metabolism, supporting the restoration of metabolic homeostasis under stress. Distinct metabolic signatures were also observed when compared to fluoxetine, indicating that GSS may exert antidepressant-like effects through partially different mechanisms. In addition,
