In the Brain of Phosphodiesterases: Potential Therapeutic Targets for Schizophrenia.
Review in Clinical psychopharmacology and neuroscience : the official scientific journal of the Korean College of Neuropsychopharmacology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Intracellular cyclic nucleotides (cyclic adenosine monophosphate and cyclic guanosine monophosphate) and downstream cellular signal transduction are regulated by phosphodiesterases (PDEs). The neuroplasticity, neurotransmitter pathways, and neuroinflammation-controlling functions of PDEs were demonstrated in numerous in vitro and animal model studies. We comprehensively reviewed the literature regarding the expression of PDEs in various brain regions. Subsequently, articles regarding schizophrenia and PDEs were examined. The pathophysiological mechanisms of schizophrenia and PDEs in preclinical and clinical investigations are briefly reviewed. Particularly for those who do not respond to conventional antipsychotics, specific PDE inhibitors may offer innovative therapeutic alternatives. Although the connection between schizophrenia and PDEs is intriguing, additional research is required. Comprehending the brain's PDE isoforms, their therapeutic potential, and any adverse effects of inhibiting them is essential for progress in this field.
