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

Objective: To investigate gray matter volume (GMV) differences related to psychiatric manifestations in patients with Wilson disease (WD) and to examine the effect of age. Methods: In 102 patients with WD, 3.0T T1-weighted MRI scans were analyzed using voxel-based morphometry. Patients were divided into younger (≤30 years) and older (>30 years) groups and were further grouped according to psychiatric manifestations. Patients with a UWDRS psychiatric subscale (UWDRS-PSY) score of 0 were classified as having no psychiatric manifestations, and those with a score >0 were classified as having psychiatric manifestations. Two-way ANCOVA was performed with total intracranial volume, sex, and education as covariates. Cluster-level family-wise error (FWE) correction was applied. Mean GMV values were extracted from significant caudate clusters and correlated with UWDRS-PSY scores as exploratory analyses. Results: Significant interactions between age group and psychiatric manifestations were found in the left insula/Rolandic operculum and right inferior temporal gyrus. Lower GMV in these regions was mainly found in younger patients with psychiatric manifestations. A main effect of psychiatric manifestations was found in the bilateral caudate nuclei, with lower GMV in patients with psychiatric manifestations. Lower caudate GMV was also associated with higher UWDRS-PSY scores. Conclusions: Psychiatric manifestations in WD are associated with distinct gray matter patterns that vary with age, while bilateral caudate involvement may represent a more consistent structural correlate. These findings highlight the potential importance of considering age when examining the neuroanatomical correlates of psychiatric manifestations in WD.
