Neuro-Behçet's Disease and Psychiatric Disorders: From a Case Report to a Systematic Review.
Synthesis in Brain and behavior, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundBehçet's disease is a chronic, relapsing systemic vasculitis that can affect multiple organ systems. Neurological involvement, known as neuro-Behçet's disease, occurs in a subset of patients, while psychiatric manifestations-termed neuro-psycho Behçet's disease-remain poorly characterized. Understanding the clinical course, pathophysiology, and management of this condition is crucial for interdisciplinary care.
objectiveTo present a detailed case of a patient with neuro-psycho Behçet's disease and to explore its pathophysiology, clinical features, psychiatric symptoms, temporal progression, and therapeutic considerations.
methodsA clinical case of a 42-year-old male with neuro-Behçet's disease who developed a manic episode is described. Concurrently, a systematic review of published cases of neuro-psycho Behçet's disease was conducted using the Web of Science, PubMed, and Embase databases on July 19, 2024, following the criteria of the PRISMA-ScR Statement.
resultsThe clinical case illustrates a multiphasic disease course, with systemic Behçet's disease symptoms preceding neurological and subsequently psychiatric manifestations. The systematic review included thirty-four cases, showing diverse psychiatric symptoms, including psychotic, affective, and behavioral disturbances. Neuroimaging frequently revealed parenchymal lesions correlating with psychiatric symptoms. Management typically combined immunosuppressive therapy for Behçet's disease with psychiatric treatment, including antipsychotic medications and mood stabilizers.
conclusionsNeuro-psycho Behçet's disease represents a clinically and pathophysiologically complex entity. The correlation between parenchymal lesions and psychiatric symptoms supports the hypothesis of a shared neurobiological substrate mediated by inflammatory and immunological mechanisms. A biphasic model, in which initial vascular involvement evolves into neurochemical and structural dysfunction, provides a coherent framework for understanding the relationship between Behçet's disease and psychiatric symptoms.
