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

backgroundStudies using animal models have shown that cerebral hypoperfusion causes hyperphosphorylation of tau protein, leading to neuronal damage. However, the relationship between hypoperfusion and tau deposition in humans is unclear. Hence, we aimed to determine whether cerebral hypoperfusion leading to decreased blood flow relative to metabolic demand [increased oxygen extraction fraction (OEF), misery perfusion] is associated with increased tau deposition in patients with atherosclerotic internal carotid artery or middle cerebral artery disease.

methodsWe prospectively evaluated the distribution of tau aggregate deposition using positron emission tomography and

resultsSignificant decreases in cerebral blood flow and cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen and increases in OEF were found in the hemisphere ipsilateral to the arterial lesion.

conclusionsThis pilot study with a small sample size suggests that increases in OEF-misery perfusion-may be associated with increased tau aggregates deposition in atherosclerotic internal carotid artery or middle cerebral artery disease.
