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

Disease-modifying therapies for proteinopathies are urgently needed yet clinical trials for the major neurodegenerative diseases, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, have been failing at an alarming rate leaving patients and caregivers scrambling for any sign of hope. At the same time, for one family of proteinopathies, the rare TTR amyloidoses, disease-modifying therapy has existed for almost 3 decades and two new types of disease-modifying therapy have become available more recently. In this chapter, I discuss those therapies, examine to what extent they can be generalized for other diseases, and consider what we may learn from their relative success.
