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

purpose of reviewLewy body dementia (LBD) encompasses dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and Parkinson's disease dementia (PDD). This article will emphasize potential disease-modifying therapies as well as investigative symptomatic treatments for non-motor symptoms including cognitive impairment and psychosis that can present a tremendous burden to patients with LBD and their caregivers. RECENT

findingsWe review 11 prospective disease-modifying therapies (DMT) including four with phase 2 data (neflamapimod, nilotinib, bosutinib, and E2027); four with some limited data in symptomatic populations including phase 1, open-label, registry, or cohort data (vodabatinib, ambroxol, clenbuterol, and terazosin); and three with phase 1 data in healthy populations (Anle138b, fosgonimeton, and CT1812). We also appraise four symptomatic therapies for cognitive impairment, but due to safety and efficacy concerns, only NYX-458 remains under active investigation. Of symptomatic therapies for psychosis recently investigated, pimavanserin shows promise in LBD, but studies of nelotanserin have been suspended. Although the discovery of novel symptomatic and disease-modifying therapeutics remains a significant challenge, recently published and upcoming trials signify promising strides toward that aim.
