The neural signatures of psychoses in Alzheimer's disease: a neuroimaging genetics approach.
Article in European archives of psychiatry and clinical neuroscience, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Psychoses in Alzheimer's disease (AD) are associated with worse prognosis. Genetic vulnerability for schizophrenia (SCZ) may drive AD-related psychoses, yet its impact on brain constituents is still unknown. This study aimed to investigate the association between polygenic risk scores (PRSs) for SCZ and psychotic experiences (PE) and grey matter (GM) volume in patients with AD with (AD-PS) and without (AD-NP) psychosis. Clinical, genetic and T1-weighted MRI data for 800 participants were extracted from the ADNI database: 203 healthy controls, 121 AD-PS and 476 AD-NP. PRSs were calculated using a Bayesian approach and analysed at ten p-value thresholds. Standard voxel-based morphometry was used to process MRI data. Logistic regression models including both PRSs for SCZ and PE, and an AD-PRS were used to predict psychosis in AD. Associations between PRSs and GM volume were investigated in the whole sample and the three groups independently. Only the AD-PRS predicted psychosis in AD. Inconsistent associations between the SCZ-PRS and PE-PRS and GM volumes were found across groups. The SCZ-PRS was negatively associated with medio-temporal/subcortical volumes and positively with medial/orbitofrontal volumes in the AD-PS group. Only medio-temporal areas were more atrophic in the AD-PS group, while there was no significant correlation between psychosis severity and GM volume. Although not associated with psychoses, the SCZ-PRS was correlated with smaller medio-temporal and larger orbitofrontal volumes in AD-PS. Similar alterations have also been observed in SCZ patients. This finding suggest a possible disconnection between these regions associated with psychoses in more advanced AD.
