Common and distinct neural correlates of emotional processing in individuals at familial risk for major depressive disorder and bipolar disorder: A comparative meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Journal of affective disorders, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Individuals at familial risk for mood disorders exhibit deficits in emotional processing and associated brain dysfunction prior to illness onset. However, such brain-behavior abnormalities related to familial predisposition remain poorly understood. To investigate robust abnormal functional activation patterns during emotional processing in unaffected at-risk relatives of patients with major depressive disorder (UAR-MDD) and bipolar disorder (UAR-BD), we performed a meta-analysis of task-based functional magnetic resonance imaging studies using Seed-based d Mapping (SDM) toolbox. Common and distinct patterns of abnormal functional activation between UAR-MDD and UAR-BD were detected via conjunction and differential analyses. A total of 17 studies comparing 481 UAR and 670 healthy controls (HC) were included. Compared with HC, UAR-MDD exhibited hyperactivation in the parahippocampal gyrus, amygdala and cerebellum, while UAR-BD exhibited parahippocampal hyperactivation and hypoactivation in the striatum and middle occipital gyrus (MOG). Conjunction analysis revealed shared hyperactivated PHG in both groups. Differential analysis indicated that the activation patterns of amygdala and MOG significantly differed between UAR-MDD and UAR-BD. These findings provide novel insights into common and distinct neural phenotypes for familial risk and associated risk mechanisms in MDD and BD, which may have implications in guiding precise prevention strategies tailored to the family context.
