Revisiting Late-Onset Bipolar Disorder Associated With Pituitary Adenoma: A Cross-Sectional, Multidisciplinary, Case-Based Analysis.
Article in Brain and behavior, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveThis study explores the diagnostic, treatment, and follow-up approaches of neurologists, psychiatrists, and family physicians in managing late-onset bipolar disorder (BD) in elderly patients, emphasizing the role of interdisciplinary collaboration.
methodsA cross-sectional survey involved 300 specialists (100 from each discipline). The survey assessed diagnostic accuracy, treatment preferences, follow-up adherence, and barriers to interdisciplinary collaboration. A pairwise z-test with Bonferroni correction was applied for comparative analysis across specialties to evaluate differences in response proportions.
resultsNeurologists demonstrated high proficiency in imaging and treatment initiation (91% correct imaging responses) but faced challenges in holistic management and follow-up adherence (2%). Psychiatrists excelled in diagnosing organic causes of mood disorders (92%) and therapeutic decisions but struggled with non-priority diagnostic tests (44%) and long-term follow-up strategies (14%). Family physicians showed strong skills in pharmacological management (96%) and follow-up adherence (89%) but encountered barriers like stigma and referral timing for high-risk cases. Common interdisciplinary challenges included diagnostic communication, treatment coordination, and follow-up collaboration.
conclusionLate-onset BD management requires a multidisciplinary approach to address specialty-specific gaps and foster effective interdisciplinary collaboration. Enhanced training, integrated care models, and shared guidelines are recommended to optimize outcomes for elderly patients with mood disorders. Future research should focus on developing standardized protocols and evaluating the long-term impact of interdisciplinary interventions.
