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

Neurodegenerative tauopathies may be inherited as autosomal-dominant disorders with variable clinicopathological phenotypes, and causative mutations in the microtubule-associated protein tau (MAPT) gene are not regularly seen. Herein, we describe a patient with clinically typical and autopsy-proven corticobasal degeneration (CBD). Her mother was diagnosed to have Parkinson's disease, but autopsy showed CBD pathology as in the index patient. The sister of the index patient had the clinical symptoms of primary progressive aphasia (PPA), but no pathology was available to date. Molecular analysis did not reveal any mutation in the MAPT or progranulin (GRN) genes. Our findings illustrate that CBD, progressive supranuclear palsy and PPA may be overlapping diseases with a common pathological basis rather than distinct entities. Clinical presentation and course might be determined by additional, yet unknown, genetic modifying factors.
