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

Although many studies on brain-age prediction in patients with schizophrenia have been reported recently, none has predicted brain age based on different neuroimaging modalities and different brain regions in these patients. Here, we constructed brain-age prediction models with multimodal MRI and examined the deviations of aging trajectories in different brain regions of participants with schizophrenia recruited from multiple centers. The data of 230 healthy controls (HCs) were used for model training. Next, we investigated the differences in brain age gaps between participants with schizophrenia and HCs from two independent cohorts. A Gaussian process regression algorithm with fivefold cross-validation was used to train 90, 90, and 48 models for gray matter (GM), functional connectivity (FC), and fractional anisotropy (FA) maps in the training dataset, respectively. The brain age gaps in different brain regions for all participants were calculated, and the differences in brain age gaps between the two groups were examined. Our results showed that most GM regions in participants with schizophrenia in both cohorts exhibited accelerated aging, particularly in the frontal lobe, temporal lobe, and insula. The parts of the white matter tracts, including the cerebrum and cerebellum, indicated deviations in aging trajectories in participants with schizophrenia. However, no accelerated brain aging was noted in the FC maps. The accelerated aging in 22 GM regions and 10 white matter tracts in schizophrenia potentially exacerbates with disease progression. In individuals with schizophrenia, different brain regions demonstrate dynamic deviations of brain aging trajectories. Our findings provided more insights into schizophrenia neuropathology.
