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

backgroundHuntington's disease (HD) has gradually become a public health threat, and there is a growing interest in developing prognostic models to predict the time for HD diagnosis.

objectiveThis study aims to develop a novel prognostic model that leverages multiple longitudinal biomarkers to inform the risk of HD.

methodsThe multivariate functional principal component analysis was used to summarize the essential information from multiple longitudinal markers and to obtain a set of prognostic scores. The prognostic scores were used as predictors in a Cox model to predict the right-censored time to diagnosis. We used cross-validation to determine the best model in PREDICT-HD (n = 1,039) and ENROLL-HD (n = 1,776); external validation was carried out in ENROLL-HD.

resultsWe considered six commonly measured longitudinal biomarkers in PREDICT-HD and ENROLL-HD (Total Motor Score, Symbol Digit Modalities Test, Stroop Word Test, Stroop Color Test, Stroop Interference Test, and Total Functional Capacity). The prognostic model utilizing these longitudinal biomarkers significantly improved the predictive performance over the model with baseline biomarker information. A new prognostic index was computed using the proposed model, and can be dynamically updated over time as new biomarker measurements become available.

conclusionLongitudinal measurements of commonly measured clinical biomarkers substantially improve the risk prediction of Huntington's disease diagnosis. Calculation of the prognostic index informs the patient's risk category and facilitates patient selection in future clinical trials.
