Targeting Histone H3K9 Methyltransferase G9a as a Potential Therapeutic Strategy for Neuropsychiatric Disorders.
Review in Medicinal research reviews, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Neuropsychiatric disorders present a multifaceted challenge, characterized by cognitive, social, and motor impairments with manifold underlying mechanisms. Recent attention has turned to epigenetic mechanisms, particularly histone lysine methyltransferases (HKMTs), such as G9a, in understanding fundamental pathogenesis. This review provides a concise overview of the structural and functional features of G9a and its involvement in neuropsychiatric disorders, including neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) like autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS), schizophrenia (SZ), epilepsy, anxiety, depression, and Alzheimer's disease (AD). Furthermore, it highlights the biochemical mechanisms of G9a-mediated histone methylations and explores pharmacological interventions targeting G9a for potential therapeutic avenues. This current knowledge underlines G9a's significance as a therapeutic target and sets the stage for future investigations into its role in neuropsychiatric disorders.
