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

backgroundPatients with a frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) usually manifest with behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD). Alzheimer's disease (AD) may also manifest with a predominant behavioral-dysexecutive syndrome, similar to bvFTD. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers, such as total tau (τ

methodsA total of 105 bvFTD patients (21 possible bvFTD; 20%) with CSF data, examined from 2008 to 2022, were included. Seventy-eight AD patients and 62 control subjects were included. The CSF biomarkers were measured with Innotest (2008-2017 subcohort) and EUROIMMUN (2017-2022 subcohort) ELISAs.

resultsDepending on the classification system, 7.6 to 28.6% of bvFTD had an AD biochemical profile. The τ

conclusionsThe four classification criteria of CSF AD biomarkers resulted in differences in AD allocation in this bvFTD cohort. A consensus on the optimal classification criteria of CSF AD biomarkers is pivotal.
