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

backgroundHippocampal atrophy in cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) has been reported to be similar to that in Alzheimer's disease (AD).

objectiveTo evaluate if CAA pathology partly mediates reduced hippocampal volume in patients with AD.

methodsPatients with a clinical diagnosis of AD and neuropathological confirmation of AD+/-CAA in the National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center database were included in the study. The volumes of temporal lobe structures were calculated on T1-weighted imaging (T1-MRI) using automated FreeSurfer software, from images acquired on average 5 years prior to death. Multivariate regression analysis was performed to compare brain volumes in four CAA groups. The hippocampal volume on T1-MRI was correlated with Clinical Dementia Rating sum of boxes (CDRsb) score, apolipoprotein E (APOE) genotype, and hippocampal atrophy at autopsy.

resultsThe study included 231 patients with no (n = 45), mild (n = 70), moderate (n = 67), and severe (n = 49) CAA. Among the four CAA groups, patients with severe CAA had a smaller mean left hippocampal volume (p = 0.023) but this was not significant when adjusted for APOE ɛ4 (p = 0.07). The left hippocampal volume on MRI correlated significantly with the hippocampal atrophy grading on neuropathology (p = 0.0003). Among patients with severe CAA, the left hippocampal volume on T1-MRI: (a) decreased with an increase in the number of APOE ɛ4 alleles (p = 0.04); but (b) had no evidence of correlation with CDRsb score (p = 0.57).

conclusionSevere CAA was associated with smaller left hippocampal volume on T1-MRI up to five years prior to death among patients with neuropathologically confirmed AD. This relationship was dependent on APOE ɛ4 genotype.
