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

purpose of reviewThis review evaluates structural neuroimaging research on substance-related psychosis to determine if these conditions share common neurobiological pathways with primary psychotic disorders, such as schizophrenia, or exhibit unique signatures. RECENT

findingsResearch indicates that methamphetamine, cannabis, and cocaine induce significant structural changes, including cortical thinning and grey matter loss. Methamphetamine-induced psychosis is associated with frontal lobe reductions and smaller hippocampal and amygdalar volumes. Cannabis use is linked to alterations in the cingulate cortex and cerebellar networks, particularly when use begins early in life. While many neuroimaging patterns overlap with schizophrenia substance-specific variations exist. For instance, methamphetamine users show more pronounced amygdalar reduction than those with primary psychosis. Generally, structural deficits are more severe and widespread in schizophrenia than in purely substance-induced cases. Substance-induced psychoses exhibit neuroanatomical signatures largely similar to primary psychoses, though distinct regional variations suggest partially divergent mechanisms. Future longitudinal and multimodal research is essential to identify definitive biomarkers for clinical differentiation.
