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

backgroundThe recently-proposed National Institute on Aging and Alzheimer's Association research framework organizes Alzheimer's disease (AD) biomarkers based on amyloid/tau/neurodegeneration (AT(N)). This study investigated the mediating effect of structural change in brain MRI on changes in cognitive function according to initial AT(N) profiles.

methodsWe included 576 subjects (cognitively unimpaired (N = 136), mild cognitive impairment (N = 294), dementia (N = 146)) from the Alzheimer's disease Neuroimaging Initiative study. The parallel-process latent growth curve model was applied to test the mediational effect of cortical thickness growth trajectory between the initial AT(N) profiles and cognitive growth trajectory.

resultsIn Alzheimer's continuum, only the A + T + (N)+ profile showed a mediational effect of the cortical thickness growth trajectory. A + T - (N)- was not sufficient to induce direct or indirect effects on cognitive dysfunction, and A + T + (N)- showed a significant direct path from an altered cortical thickness to cognitive decline.

conclusionThe sequential effect between changes in brain MRI and cognition varied by baseline AT(N) profile, suggesting the dynamic changes in the relationships among biomarkers in the current cascade model.
