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

Cerebral amyloid-β (Aβ) depositions in depression in old age are controversial. A substantial proportion of individuals with late-life major depressive disorder (MDD) could be classified as having suspected non-Alzheimer's disease pathophysiology (SNAP) by a negative test for the biomarker amyloid-β (Aβ-) but positive neurodegeneration (ND+). This study aimed to evaluate subthreshold Aβ loads in amyloid-negative MDD, particularly in SNAP MDD patients. This study included 46 amyloid-negative MDD patients: 23 SNAP (Aβ-/ND+) MDD and 23 Aβ-/ND- MDD, and 22 Aβ-/ND- control subjects. All subjects underwent
