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

Frontotemporal lobar degeneration with TPD-43-immunoreactive pathology (FTLD-TDP) is subclassified based on the type and cortical laminar distribution of neuronal inclusions. The relevance of these pathological subtypes is supported by the presence of relatively specific clinical and genetic correlations. Recent evidence suggests that the different patterns of pathology are a reflection of biochemical differences in the pathological TDP-43 species, each of which is influenced by differing genetic factors. As a result, patient FTLD-TDP subtype may be an important factor to consider when developing biomarkers and targeted therapies for frontotemporal dementia. In this chapter, we first describe the pathological features, clinical and genetic correlations of the currently recognized FTLD-TDP subtypes. We then discuss a number of novel patterns of TDP-43 pathology. Finally, we provide an overview of what is currently known about the biochemical basis of the different FTLD-TDP subtypes and how this may explain the observed phenotypic and pathological heterogeneity.
