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

Alzheimer's Disease is a neurodegenerative disorder, and one of its common and prominent early symptoms is language impairment. Therefore, early diagnosis of Alzheimer's Disease through speech and text information is of significant importance. However, the multimodal data is often complex and inconsistent, which leads to inadequate feature extraction. To address the problem, We propose a model for early diagnosis of Alzheimer's Disease based on multimodal attention(EDAMM). Specifically, we first evaluate and select three optimal feature extraction methods, Wav2Vec2.0, TF-IDF and Word2Vec, to extract acoustic and linguistic features. Next, by leveraging self-attention mechanism and cross-modal attention mechanisms, we generate fused features to enhance and capture the inter-modal correlation information. Finally, we concatenate the multimodal features into a composite feature vector and employ a Neural Network(NN) classifier to diagnose Alzheimer's Disease. To evaluate EDAMM, we perform experiments on two public datasets, i.e., NCMMSC2021 and ADReSSo. The results show that EDAMM improves the performance of Alzheimer's Disease diagnosis over state-of-the-art baseline approaches on both datasets.
