Hippocampal sclerosis of aging at post-mortem is evident on MRI more than a decade prior.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
introductionHippocampal sclerosis of aging (HS) is an important component of combined dementia neuropathology. However, the temporal evolution of its histologically-defined features is unknown. We investigated pre-mortem longitudinal hippocampal atrophy associated with HS, as well as with other dementia-associated pathologies.
methodsWe analyzed hippocampal volumes from MRI segmentations in 64 dementia patients with longitudinal MRI follow-up and post-mortem neuropathological evaluation, including HS assessment in the hippocampal head and body.
resultsSignificant HS-associated hippocampal volume changes were observed thoughout the evaluated timespan, up to 11.75 years before death. These changes were independent of age and Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) burden, and specifically driven by CA1 and subiculum. AD burden, but not HS, significantly associated with the rate of hippocampal atrophy. DISCUSSION: HS-associated volume changes are detectable on MRI earlier than 10 years before death. These findings could contribute to the derivation of volumetric cut-offs for
