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

Background: As the prevalence of Alzheimer's disease (AD) grows with an aging population, the need for early diagnosis has led to increased focus on electroencephalography (EEG) as a non-invasive diagnostic tool. Objective: This review assesses advancements in EEG analysis, including the application of machine learning, for detecting AD from 2000 to 2023. Methods: Following PRISMA guidelines, a search across major databases resulted in 25 studies that met the inclusion criteria, focusing on EEG's application in AD diagnosis and the use of novel signal processing and machine learning techniques. Results: Progress in EEG analysis has shown promise for early AD identification, with techniques like Hjorth parameters and signal compressibility enhancing detection capabilities. Machine learning has improved the precision of differential diagnosis between AD and mild cognitive impairment. However, challenges in standardizing EEG methodologies and data privacy remain. Conclusions: EEG stands out as a valuable tool for early AD detection, with the potential to integrate into multimodal diagnostic approaches. Future research should aim to standardize EEG procedures and explore collaborative, privacy-preserving research methods.
