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

background and purposeGlobular glial tauopathies (GGTs) have heterogeneous presentations; little evidence regarding typical clinical and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) presentations are available.

methodsWe retrospectively assessed MRIs from three postmortem-confirmed GGT cases, in two patients with atypical progressive aphasia and one with corticobasal syndrome.

resultsWe suggest that four principal concomitant MRI findings characterize GGT type I: a sagittal callosal hyperintense band, marked focal callosal atrophy suggesting white matter degeneration originating in cortical areas responsible for symptoms (anterior atrophy in predominantly language manifestations and posterior atrophy in predominantly apraxia), periventricular white matter lesions, and mild-to-moderate brain stem atrophy.

conclusionsWe observed four concomitant MRI abnormalities in patients with atypical dementia, parkinsonism, and late incomplete supranuclear gaze palsy. Two patients had atypical progressive aphasia and one had corticobasal syndrome.
