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

The increasing incidence of Alzheimer's disease (AD) has been leading towards a significant growth in socioeconomic challenges. A reliable prediction of AD might be useful to mitigate or at-least slow down its progression for which, identification of the factors affecting the AD and its accurate diagnoses, are vital. In this study, we use Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) dataset which comprises significant genetic markers of complex diseases. The original dataset contains large number of attributes (620901) for which we propose a hybrid feature selection approach based on association test, principal component analysis, and the Boruta algorithm, to identify the most promising predictors of AD. The selected features are then forwarded to a wide and deep neural network models to classify the AD cases and healthy controls. The experimental outcomes indicate that our approach outperformed the existing methods when evaluated on standard dataset, producing an accuracy and f1-score of 99%. The outcomes from this study are impactful particularly, the identified features comprising AD-associated genes and a reliable classification model that might be useful for other chronic diseases.
