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

introductionProgressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia - (bv-FTD) share common neuropsychological features except for online monitoring awareness. Therefore, the aim of our study is to explore if this assessment could be used in standard clinical practice. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe retrospectively analyse 93 subjects (27 FTD, 25 PSP, 42 healthy controls). Neuropsychological and instrumental examinations were performed for each patient.

resultsFTD patients made fewer self-corrections than PSP patients despite a similar number of total errors. We also performed ROC curves: the area under the curve (AUC) is 0.79. A model for a logistic regression was also developed: the only significant predictor is the number of self-corrections (p = 0.004 β = 1244). DISCUSSION AND

conclusionsIn conclusion, our findings show online awareness is more compromised in FTD patients than in PSP patients. This difference could be useful for making a differential diagnosis between the two diseases: for each extra point in number of self-corrections the probability of suffering from PSP increases by about three and a half times (OR 3.47).
