The role of the endocannabinoid system in managing neuropsychiatric symptoms in Alzheimer's disease.
Review in Frontiers in psychiatry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The endocannabinoid system comprises cannabinoid receptors (CBRs) 1 & 2, endocannabinoids (eCBs) anandamide (AEA) and 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG), and the enzymes that regulate their production and degradation. ECS plays a significant role in both health and disease. It influences neuronal and glial communications, neurotransmitter regulations, neuroinflammation, and behavioral alterations. Neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) are commonly seen in neurodegenerative conditions like Alzheimer's disease (AD), apart from the core clinical diagnosis of dementia. NPS consists of various disturbing symptoms, including anxiety, agitation, apathy, hallucinations, delusions, sleeping problems, appetite problems, and depression. In AD, up to 97% exhibit one or more NPS. Emerging evidence from preclinical and clinical studies suggests that ECS is both a contributor to and a potential therapeutic target for managing NPS. This review explores ECS's role in NPS and its therapeutic implications.
