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

Pathological changes in the brain begin accumulating decades before the appearance of cognitive symptoms in Alzheimer's disease. The deposition of amyloid beta proteins and other neurotoxic changes occur, leading to disruption in functional connections between brain networks. Discrete characterization of the changes that take place in preclinical Alzheimer's disease has the potential to help treatment development by targeting the neuropathological mechanisms to prevent cognitive decline and dementia from occurring entirely. Previous research has focused on the cross-sectional differences in the brains of patients with mild cognitive impairment or Alzheimer's disease and healthy controls or has concentrated on the stages immediately preceding cognitive symptoms. The present study emphasizes the early preclinical phases of neurodegeneration. We use a longitudinal approach to examine the brain changes that take place during the early stages of cognitive decline in the Open Access Series of Imaging Studies-3 data set. Among 1098 participants, 274 passed the inclusion criteria (i.e. had at least two cognitive assessments and two amyloid scans). Over 90% of participants were healthy at baseline. Over 8-10 years, some participants progressed to very mild cognitive impairment (
