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

Genetic risk for schizophrenia (SCZ) has been linked to cognitive performance before the onset age. We examined how SCZ-related polygenic risk and resilience variants, and their co-expression patterns in the human brain, were associated with cognitive abilities across development in 16,520 non-psychiatric European and African ancestry children and adults. SCZ risk showed significant negative associations with spatial, verbal, and working memory across ancestries (all t<-2, pFDR<0.05). In Europeans, risk and resilience variants had opposing effects on attention, working and spatial memory (Δt>4, pFDR<0.05). Polygenic scores filtered through perinatal co-expression networks showed stronger links with cognition than adult (ΔAIC>5.75, p=0.02) or juvenile (ΔAIC>5.8, p=0.03) networks. Cross-ancestry correlations (R=0.52, p<0.01) highlight replicability. These findings support the neurodevelopmental basis of SCZ, suggesting that risk and resilience variants influence cognition from early life, independent of symptoms and elucidate biological pathways through which SCZ risk may influence early cognitive development.
