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

The chromosome 10q region has recently received a great deal of attention in late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD), given the growing evidence of linkage to LOAD, or to A-beta levels, reported by several groups. In a recent paper we reported evidence of linkage in this region in our subset of the NIMH AD genetics initiative pedigrees, approaching genome-wide significance (non-parametric LOD score = 3.27), when only families with maternal disease origin were analyzed [Bassett et al. (2002); Am J Med Genet 114:679-686]. We have now extended this work, using an independent subset of NIMH AD pedigrees from the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB), and show further evidence of linkage using parent-of-origin information. As in our Hopkins sample, maternal but not paternal pedigrees show significantly increased linkage in the chromosome 10q region compared to the unstratified sample. Combining data from our previous fine-mapping work on this region and five new markers genotyped in all pedigrees results in a non-parametric LOD score of 3.73 in the same region, a value that reaches genome wide significance for linkage, with an empirical P value = 0.003. These results support our earlier findings and narrow the region of interest. In combination with findings from other groups, these results provide further evidence that this chromosome 10 region harbors a gene implicated in LOAD, and our use of parent-of-origin information has been useful in further narrowing the region of interest.
