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
Objective: The impact of chronic exposure to stress or glucocorticoids on psychiatric symptoms has been exemplified by cases of iatrogenic or endogenous hypercortisolism such as Cushing's syndrome (CS). The amygdala plays an important role in mediating both stress and affective responses, and one of the key factors that link stress response and psychiatric symptoms is the corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF). Epigenetic changes, especially those occurring on CpG dinucleotides in DNA of glucocorticoid target genes in blood, have been previously implicated as potential predictors of glucocorticoid-related events in the central nervous system (CNS). In this study, we examined amygdala volume and mood symptoms in CS patients and aimed at evaluating whether these parameters were associated with blood DNA methylation of Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 32 CS patients and 32 healthy controls matched for age, sex, and years of education underwent an MRI scan, a Beck Depression Inventory-II, and a State-Trait Anxiety Inventory. Genomic DNA extracted from total leukocytes were used for DNA methylation analysis of several CpG dinucleotides at the Results: Significant associations between Conclusion: These results demonstrate that methylation levels of the
