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

The endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a fundamental regulator of brain and body homeostasis, integrating neural, immune, and stress-related signaling pathways. Dysregulation of ECS components, including cannabinoid receptors (CB1 and CB2), endocannabinoids such as anandamide (AEA) and 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG), and their metabolic enzymes (FAAH and MAGL), has been increasingly implicated in the pathophysiology of neuropsychiatric disorders, including mood, anxiety, psychotic, stress-related, and eating disorders. Altered endocannabinoid signaling contributes to maladaptive stress responses, emotional dysregulation, and impaired synaptic plasticity, highlighting the role of the ECS as a core integrative mechanism. Therapeutic strategies targeting ECS, particularly through FAAH inhibition and the use of plant-derived cannabinoids, such as cannabidiol (CBD), show promise in restoring endogenous homeostasis while minimizing the adverse cognitive and affective effects associated with direct CB1 activation. ECS function and treatment response are further influenced by genetic polymorphisms in
