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

Alzheimer's disease (AD), a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, is the most common untreatable form of dementia. Identifying molecular biomarkers that allow early detection remains a key challenge in the diagnosis, treatment, and prognostic evaluation of the disease. Here, we report a novel experimental and analytical model characterizing epigenetic alterations during AD onset and progression. We generated the first integrated base-resolution genome-wide maps of the distribution of 5-methyl-cytosine (5mC), 5-hydroxymethyl-cytosine (5hmC), and 5-formyl/carboxy-cytosine (5fC/caC) in normal and AD neurons. We identified 27 AD region-specific and 39 CpG site-specific epigenetic signatures that were independently validated across our familial and sporadic AD models, and in an independent clinical cohort. Thus, our work establishes a new model and strategy to study the epigenetic alterations underlying AD onset and progression and provides a set of highly reliable AD-specific epigenetic signatures that may have early diagnostic and prognostic implications.
