Resistance and resilience to tau pathology in Alzheimer's disease: Effects of age, sex, and
Article in Alzheimer's & dementia (Amsterdam, Netherlands). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
introductionNeurofibrillary tangles (NFTs), a hallmark of tau pathology in Alzheimer's disease (AD), accumulate in the aging brain. However, some individuals remain cognitively intact despite high Braak (III-VI) stages, which characterize NFTs' accumulation.
methodsWe studied resistance and resilience to tau pathology by assessing Braak stages based on apolipoprotein E (
resultsResistance, characterized by low (0-II) Braak stages, was observed in men and women younger than 85 years of age. Resilience, indicated by high (III-VI) Braak stages, increased significantly with age in both men and women for each DISCUSSION: The identification of factors underlying resistance and resilience against AD-related pathologies is essential for promoting cognitively healthy aging. Highlights: We investigated cognitive resistance and resilience to tau pathology in Alzheimer's disease (AD).This study included individuals who were not diagnosed with AD.Braak stages 0-II and III-VI were considered as a measure of resistance and resilience, respectively.Resistance was stronger at ages younger than 85 years in non-carriers of the apolipoprotein E (
