Pharmacoepigenetics in schizophrenia: Predicting drug response.
Review in World journal of psychiatry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Individual differences in treatment response in schizophrenia pose a significant challenge in the management of the disease, due to several biological as well as psychosocial factors, including genetic and epigenetic mechanisms. Pharmacoepigenetics investigates how epigenetic mechanisms affect the variability in effectiveness of treatments and adverse side effects. Antipsychotics such as clozapine (atypical) and haloperidol (typical) directly induce epigenetic changes by altering DNA methyltransferases and histone acetyltransferases, while indirectly affecting neuroinflammatory and stress response pathways. Personalized medicine using epigenetic markers (DNA methylation, non-coding RNAs including microRNAs and long non-coding RNAs) holds great promise for improving the drug response and reducing the side effects of antipsychotic treatment. These developments could revolutionize the treatment of schizophrenia by addressing the complexities involved in responding to treatment. However, ethical and technical barriers to implementing strategies based on epigenetic regulation in clinical practice are fundamental challenges that need to be carefully addressed in this field. This review examined the epigenetic mechanisms involved in the efficacy of antipsychotic drugs.
