Research advances on the pathogenesis and clinical interventions of post-stroke depression.
Review in Frontiers in neurology. 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
Background: Post-stroke depression (PSD) is a common neuropsychiatric complication affecting 30-50% of stroke survivors, impairing rehabilitation, quality of life, and prognosis. Main body: This narrative review synthesizes recent evidence on PSD pathogenesis (neurotransmitter dysregulation, neuroinflammation, impaired neuroplasticity; psychosocial factors such as stress and social support deficits; gene-environment interactions including 5-HTT and BDNF polymorphisms), clinical interventions (pharmacotherapy with SSRIs/SNRIs, psychotherapy including CBT, neuromodulation via rTMS/tDCS/ECT, novel agents such as ketamine, and multidisciplinary models), and prevention (risk stratification, early screening with PHQ-9/HAMD, personalized biological/psychosocial strategies, and digital monitoring). Conclusion: Despite gaps in long-term data and validated biomarkers, multidisciplinary integrated care and precision medicine approaches offer promising avenues to optimize screening, early intervention, prevention, and long-term outcomes for stroke survivors.
