1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Traditionally, the aetiology of schizophrenia has been attributed to dopaminergic neurotransmission, but more recent information points to the role of glutamate pathways. Glutamatergic involvement in schizophrenia might be extensible to drug response. The aim of the study was to explore whether the variation in glutamate receptors, transporters and metabolism can influence the outcome of drug treatments.A total of 45 polymorphisms in the genes GRIN1, GRIN2A, GRIN2B, GRIN3A, GRIA1, GRIK2, GRM2, GRM3, GRM5, GRM8, SLC1A1, SLC1A3 and GAD1 were genotyped in 258 patients with schizophrenia. Efficacy and side effects were evaluated with the Positive and Negative Symptoms Scale and the UKU scale, respectively, at baseline and after 12 weeks.The analysis revealed associations between outcomes, including response and adverse effects and genetic variants in several genes (GAD1, GRIA1, GRIN2A, GRIN3A, GRIK2, GRM2, GRM5, GRM8 and SLC1A3). An association of rs1864205 in GRIA1 with autonomic side effects bordered statistical significance after correction for multiple comparisons.Our results suggest that genetic variation in glutamatergic pathways can influence the efficacy and safety of antipsychotic drugs.
