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

purposeThe aim of this study was to compare [(11)C]Pittsburgh compound B ([(11)C]PiB) and [(18)F]florbetaben ([(18)F]FBB) for preclinical investigations of amyloid-β pathology. PROCEDURES: We investigated two aged animal models of cerebral amyloidosis with contrasting levels of amyloid-β relating to "high" (APPPS1-21 n = 6, wild type (WT) n = 7) and "low" (BRI1-42 n = 6, WT n = 6) target states, respectively.

resultsAPPPS1-21 mice (high target state) demonstrated extensive fibrillar amyloid-β deposition that translated to significantly increased retention of [(11)C]PiB and [(18)F]FBB in comparison to their wild type. The retention pattern of [(11)C]PiB and [(18)F]FBB in this cohort displayed a significant correlation. However, the relative difference in tracer uptake between diseased and healthy mice was substantially higher for [(11)C]PiB than for [(18)F]FBB. Although immunohistochemistry confirmed the high plaque load in APPPS1-21 mice, correlation between tracer uptake and ex vivo quantification of amyloid-β was poor for both tracers. BRI1-42 mice (low target state) did not demonstrate increased tracer uptake.

conclusionsIn cases of high fibrillar amyloid-β burden, both tracers detected significant differences between diseased and healthy mice, with [(11)C]PiB showing a larger dynamic range.
