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

Major depressive disorder is highly prevalent and disabling, and many patients do not respond to standard therapies, resulting in treatment-resistant depression (TRD). Progress in TRD requires preclinical models with poor response to conventional treatments. The Wistar-Kyoto rat exposed to chronic mild stress (WKY/CMS) offers a robust paradigm: it shows limited responsiveness to standard antidepressants yet remains sensitive to interventions effective in TRD (esketamine, ECT), making it well-suited to probe TRD mechanisms and evaluate candidate therapies. To extend the characterization of this model-previously unstudied with quantitative
