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

objectiveWe present here a case report of a patient with a family history of intracerebral hemorrhages (ICHs) who presented with multiple large lobar hemorrhages in rapid succession, with cognitive sparing, who was found to have a mutation in the β-amyloid coding sequence of amyloid precursor protein (Leu705Val), termed the Piedmont-type mutation, the second ever reported case of this form of hereditary cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA).

methodsTargeted pathologic examination was performed aided by the use of ex vivo MRI.

resultsSevere CAA was observed mainly involving the leptomeningeal vessels and, to a far lesser extent, cortical vessels, with no amyloid plaques or neurofibrillary tangles.

conclusionsThis leptomeningeal pattern of β-amyloid deposition coupled with multiple large hemorrhages demonstrates unique pathophysiologic characteristics of CAA associated with the Piedmont-type mutation, suggesting a potential association between leptomeningeal CAA and larger ICHs.
