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

Psychiatric disorders present a significant global health burden with limited effective medications. Observing the widespread comorbidities between diabetes and psychiatric disorders, we explored the potential of repurposing antidiabetic drug targets for psychiatric treatments. We identified 32 target genes of 60 antidiabetics and performed Mendelian randomization analyses using expression and protein quantitative trait loci data from brain tissues alongside summary data for seven psychiatric disorders. Additionally, we conducted colocalization analyses, replication analyses in blood and at the single-cell level, single-cell gene annotation, developmental trajectory analysis, and various functional assessments. We found that elevated GANC expression in the putamen basal ganglia, nucleus accumbens basal ganglia, cortex, and whole blood was associated with a reduced risk of bipolar disorder (OR, 0.532-0.877; P, 4.04 × 10
