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

Introduction: Patients with predementia Alzheimer's disease (AD) and at-risk subjects are targets for promising disease-modifying treatments, and improved polygenic risk scores (PRSs) could improve early-stage case selection. Methods: Phenotype-informed PRSs were developed by selecting AD-associated variants conditional on relevant inflammatory or cardiovascular traits. The primary outcome was longitudinal changes in measures of AD pathology, namely development of pathological amyloid deposition, medial temporal lobe atrophy, and cognitive decline in a prospective cohort study including 394 adults without AD dementia. Results: High-risk groups defined by phenotype-informed AD PRSs had significantly steeper volume decline in medial temporal cortices, and the high-risk group defined by the cardiovascular-informed AD PRS had significantly increased hazard ratio of pathological amyloid deposition, compared to low-risk groups. Discussion: AD PRSs informed by inflammatory disorders or cardiovascular risk factors and diseases are associated with development of AD pathology markers and may improve identification of subjects at risk for progression of AD.
