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

Overly restricted and poorly designed eligibility criteria reduce the generalizability of the results from clinical trials. We conducted a study to identify and quantify the impacts of study traits extracted from eligibility criteria on the age of study populations in Alzheimer's Disease (AD) clinical trials. Using machine learning methods and SHapley Additive exPlanation (SHAP) values, we identified 30 and 34 study traits that excluded older patients from AD trials in our 2 generated target populations respectively. We also found that study traits had different magnitudes of impacts on the age distributions of the generated study populations across racial-ethnic groups. To our best knowledge, this was the first study that quantified the impact of eligibility criteria on the age of AD trial participants. Our research is a first step in addressing the overly restrictive eligibility criteria in AD clinical trials.
