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

Vascular dysfunction and structural abnormalities in Alzheimer's disease (AD) are known to contribute to the progression of the pathology, and studies have tended to ignore the role of the vasculature in AD progression. We utilized the 3xTg-AD mouse model of AD to examine individual cerebral vessels and the cortical vascular network across the lifespan. Our vessel painting approach was used to label the entire cortical vasculature, followed by epifluorescence microscopy. The middle cerebral artery (MCA) tree was assessed with confocal microscopy, and a new method was developed to assess branching patterns as a measure of aging-related changes. We found that vascular remodeling was profoundly altered at 4-6 months of age, when the 3xTg-AD mouse is known to transition to cognitive impairment and Aβ deposition in both sexes. Analysis of vascular features (density, junctions, length) of the MCA territory highlighted sex-dependent differences across the 3xTg-AD mouse lifespan, with no alterations in branching patterns. Our current cerebrovascular angioarchitectural analyses demonstrate progressive alterations in individual cortical vessels, as well as in the vascular network of the cortex. These new findings advance our understanding of brain anatomy and physiology in the 3xTg-AD mouse, while potentially identifying unique diagnostic signatures of AD progression.
