Effects of ApoE genotype on clinical phenotypes in early-onset and late-onset Alzheimer's disease in China: Data from the PUMCH dementia cohort.
Article in Brain and behavior, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
introductionTo investigate the heterogeneous effect of Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) genotype on clinical phenotypes in early-onset Alzheimer's disease (EOAD) and late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD), respectively.
methods785 probable AD patients were enrolled from the dementia cohort of Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH), China. There were 386 EOAD and 399 LOAD cases. All individuals finished history inquiry, neurological examination, blood biochemical test, neuropsychological screening test, electroencephalography, brain CT/MRI, and ApoE genotyping. Some participants had neuropsychological domain assessment (n = 317), MRI morphometry (n = 130), CSF testing of Aβ42, p-tau, t-tau (n = 144), or DNA sequencing (n = 690). The variables were compared mainly between ɛ4 carriers and non-carriers in EOAD and LOAD, respectively.
resultsIn LOAD, ɛ4 carriers showed female predominance; worse performance in trail making test, delayed recall of auditory verbal learning test (AVLT) and rey complex figure; smaller hippocampal, parahippocampal, and entorhinal volume, as compared to ɛ4 non-carriers. In EOAD, ɛ4 carriers had lower scores in AVLT, episodic memory and modified Luria's tapping task; but less cortical atrophy in entorhinal, middle cingulate, inferior frontal, and parieto-occipital regions, in comparison to ɛ4 non-carriers. 6.2% (43/690) subjects harbored potential causative mutations in APP, PSEN1, and PSEN2. In both EOAD and LOAD, no differences were observed between ɛ4 carriers and non-carriers in CSF levels of Aβ42, p-tau, t-tau, or mutation frequency.
conclusionsApoE exerts a heterogeneous effect on clinical phenotypes in EOAD and LOAD, which might be related to the different genetic and pathological basis underlying them.
