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

Inflammation and alterations in essential protein structures in the brain might also change the cellular distribution in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Using flow cytometry, we analyzed cell populations of the innate and adaptive immune system associated with the most frequent forms of dementias. We included patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI; N ​= ​33), Alzheimer's disease (AD; N ​= ​90), vascular dementia (VD; N ​= ​35) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD; N ​= ​17) at the time of diagnosis, before onset of treatment and 11 elderly non-demented individuals. Dependent on the form of dementia, an increased frequency of CD14
