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

Our study compared brain MRI with neuropathological findings in patients with primary age-related tauopathy (PART) and Alzheimer's disease (AD), while assessing the relationship between brain atrophy and clinical impairment. We analyzed 233 participants: 32 with no plaques ("definite" PART-BRAAK stage higher than 0 and CERAD 0), and 201 cases within the AD spectrum, with 25 with sparse (CERAD 1), 76 with moderate (CERAD 2), and 100 with severe (CERAD 3) degrees of neuritic plaques. Upon correcting for age, sex, and age difference at MRI and death, there were significantly higher levels of atrophy in CERAD 3 compared to CERAD 1-2 and a trend compared to PART (p = 0.06). In the anterior temporal region, there was a trend for higher levels of atrophy in PART compared to Alzheimer's disease spectrum cases with CERAD 1 (p = 0.08). We then assessed the correlation between regional brain atrophy and CDR sum of boxes score for PART and AD, and found that overall cognition deficits are directly correlated with regional atrophy in the AD continuum, but not in definite PART. We further observed correlations between regional brain atrophy with multiple neuropsychological metrics in AD, with PART showing specific correlations between language deficits and anterior temporal atrophy. Overall, these findings support PART as an independent pathologic process from AD.
