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

purposeAs one of the most common mental disorders and the most important precursor of suicide in Alzheimer's disease (AD), depression is associated with a decline in both well-being and daily functioning. At present, the diagnosis of AD patients with depression (D-AD) is largely dependent on clinical signs and symptoms, and the precise neural correlate underlying D-AD is still not fully understood.

methodsThe current study sought to investigate low-frequency oscillations at the voxel level in D-AD patients based on the amplitude of low-frequency fluctuations (ALFF) measured using resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging. We examined 22 D-AD patients and 21 non-depressed AD (nD-AD) patients.

resultsThe results revealed that D-AD patients exhibited increased ALFF values in the left caudate and thalamus and decreased ALFF values in the left middle temporal pole compared with nD-AD patients.

conclusionThese findings may provide further insight into the underlying neuropathophysiology of AD with depression.
