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

backgroundThe evaluation of

methodsFifteen AD patients were enrolled in this study. Correlations were evaluated between the

resultsA positive correlation was found between the severity of agitation and

conclusionsNeuroinflammation in the medial temporal region and its neighbouring area was shown to be associated with the development of agitation symptoms in AD patients. Our findings extend those of previous studies showing an association between some NPS and inflammation, suggesting that immunologically based interventions for agitation can serve as an alternative treatment for dementia.
