Article Synopsis
- The commentary discusses how publication bias may affect the perceived effectiveness of traditional antidepressants in the forced swim test (FST).
- A recent systematic review and meta-analysis indicated that these antidepressants significantly reduced immobility in mice, but the findings also highlighted the prevalence of studies showing favorable results.
- Although preliminary data from another study showed no evidence of bias for one specific antidepressant, further extensive research is needed to comprehensively assess the risk of publication bias in antidepressant research to improve drug discovery efforts.
