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

backgroundAlthough subtle differences in cortico-striato-thalamo-cortical circuit structure and function are critical to the current understanding of the neurocircuitry in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), emerging evidence suggests that the cerebellum may also be involved. However, much of this evidence comes from studies with small samples and notable methodological heterogeneity.

methodsWe conducted a mega-analysis of individual-participant data on cerebellar subregional volumes, comparing individuals with OCD and healthy controls (HCs) from the ENIGMA-OCD Working Group. Three-dimensional T1-weighted volumetric structural brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans from 1954 individuals with OCD and 2091 HCs across 22 sites (40 datasets) were processed using the ACAPULCO (Automatic Cerebellum Anatomical parcellation using U-Net Locally Constrained Optimization) pipeline to extract cerebellar parcellations. We harmonized the volume measures across sites using the ComBat algorithm. Multiple linear regression models were fitted to estimate group differences separately within the pediatric (<12 years), adolescent (12-17 years), and adult (from 18 years) samples, adjusting for age, gender, and intracranial volume.

resultsIn adults with OCD (vs. HCs), we found significantly smaller volumes of the corpus medullare (d = -0.093, false discovery rate (FDR)-corrected p = .036), left VIIb (d = -0.085, p

conclusionsWe report novel findings implicating specific cerebellar subregions across developmental stages of OCD and the key impact of medication status. Additional research on the functional significance of these findings may offer new translational leads.
