Promoting diversity in clinical trials: insights from planning the ALUMNI AD study in historically underrepresented US populations with early symptomatic Alzheimer's disease.
Review in EClinicalMedicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Clinical trial participation across disease areas, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), has been biased towards White participants of European ancestry. To support clinical decision-making across diverse populations, we must recognize and address barriers to trial participation. To inform the design of ALUMNI AD, a trial focused on historically underrepresented AD populations, we held advice-seeking fora with key stakeholders to understand barriers and identify potential solutions to maximize trial participation of underrepresented racial and ethnic groups in the US. Strategies identified from this process include: obtaining and implementing recommendations from community stakeholders; establishing a simple and inclusive prescreening and screening process; supporting participants and care partners; identifying and activating community-centric clinical sites; and demonstrating community commitment. While ALUMNI AD did not commence, we hope that our insights could be incorporated into future studies to improve diversity, equity, and inclusion in AD clinical research.
