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

backgroundContralateral brain structures represent a unique, within-patient reference element for disease, and asymmetries can provide a personalized measure of the accumulation of past disease processes. Neuroanatomical shape asymmetries have recently been associated with the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD), but the biological basis of asymmetric brain changes in AD remains unknown.

methodsWe investigated genetic influences on brain asymmetry by identifying associations between magnetic resonance imaging-derived measures of asymmetry and candidate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that have previously been identified in genome-wide association studies for AD diagnosis and for brain subcortical volumes. For analyzing longitudinal neuroimaging data (1241 individuals, 6395 scans), we used a mixed effects model with interaction between genotype and diagnosis.

resultsSignificant associations between asymmetry of the amygdala, hippocampus, and putamen and SNPs in the genes BIN1, CD2AP, ZCWPW1, ABCA7, TNKS, and DLG2 were found.

conclusionsThe associations between SNPs in the genes TNKS and DLG2 and AD-related increases in shape asymmetry are of particular interest; these SNPs have previously been associated with subcortical volumes of amygdala and putamen but have not yet been associated with AD pathology. For AD candidate SNPs, we extend previous work to show that their effects on subcortical brain structures are asymmetric. This provides novel evidence about the biological underpinnings of brain asymmetry as a disease marker.
