Real-world retrospective study of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) treatment for bipolar and unipolar depression using TMS registry data in Tokyo.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Despite the prevalence of empirical practice, evidence supporting the use of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in treating bipolar depression (BD) is sparse compared to that for unipolar depression. Therefore, this study aimed to conduct a retrospective observational analysis using TMS registry data to compare the efficacy of rTMS treatment for BD and unipolar depression. Data from 20 patients diagnosed with unipolar and BD were retrospectively extracted from the TMS registry to ensure age and sex matching. The primary outcomes of this registry study were measured using the 21-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D
