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

introductionBehavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) can be computationally divided into four distinct anatomic subtypes based on patterns of frontotemporal and subcortical atrophy. To more precisely predict disease trajectories of individual patients, the temporal stability of each subtype must be characterized.

methodsWe investigated the longitudinal stability of the four previously identified anatomic subtypes in 72 bvFTD patients. We also applied a voxel-wise mixed effects model to examine subtype differences in atrophy patterns across multiple timepoints.

resultsOur results demonstrate the stability of the anatomic subtypes at baseline and over time. While they had common salience network atrophy, each subtype showed distinctive baseline and longitudinal atrophy patterns. DISCUSSION: Recognizing these anatomically heterogeneous subtypes and their different patterns of atrophy progression in early bvFTD will improve disease course prediction in individual patients. Longitudinal volumetric predictions based on these anatomic subtypes may be used as a more accurate endpoint in treatment trials.
