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

Background: Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) reveals diverse neural activity patterns in adolescent major depressive disorder (MDD) with nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI; nsMDD). However, the reported results are inconsistent. The aim of this study was to conduct a meta-analysis to identify consistent patterns of brain activity alterations in adolescent nsMDD. Methods: A systematic search was conducted across PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Google Scholar, Wanfang, and CNKI for rs-fMRI studies that compared nsMDD patients with healthy controls (HCs), up to June 30, 2025. Significant cluster coordinates were extracted for comprehensive analysis. We utilized regional homogeneity (ReHo) and amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations (ALFFs) analyses. Activation likelihood estimation (ALE) was used to identify regions of aberrant spontaneous neural activity in adolescent nsMDD compared to HCs. Results: Eight studies (249 adolescent nsMDD and 278 HCs) were included. The ALE meta-analysis revealed increased activity in the left lingual gyrus (LING; Brodmann area [BA] 18) in adolescent nsMDD compared to HCs (voxel size = 200 mm Conclusions: This meta-analysis confirms consistent alterations in specific brain regions in adolescent nsMDD, highlighting the potential of rs-fMRI to refine diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.
