Electroconvulsive Therapy Reduces Protein Expression Level of EP300 and Improves Psychiatric Symptoms and Disturbance of Thought in Patients with Schizophrenia.
Article in Neuropsychiatric disease and treatment, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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: Although electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) has been employed as an effective treatment strategy and to improve mental symptoms in schizophrenia (SCZ), its action mechanisms remain unclear. Our previous study found that some genes and biological pathways were closely related to ECT through genetic technology analysis, such as LTP pathway and Methods: One hundred and one patients with SCZ and 45 healthy controls (HCs) were enrolled in this study. Patients with SCZ received acute courses of 6 times bilateral ECT. The peripheral blood of patients with SCZ (BECT: before ECT; AECT: after ECT) and the HCs was collected to calculate the changes of expression level of EP300 protein by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The Positive and Negative Symptoms Scale (PANSS) was used to evaluate the severity of symptoms of SCZ patients and the efficiency of the ECT. Results: There was a statistical difference of EP300 protein expression in patients with SCZ (BECT and AECT) (F = 114.5, Conclusion: Our study suggests that the expression level of EP300 protein has a significant change in patients with SCZ treating with ECT, and EP300 may have some connections with positive symptoms and disturbance thought of patients with SCZ.
