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

Amyloid-PET quantification through the tracer-independent Centiloid (CL) scale has emerged as an essential tool for the accurate measurement of amyloid-β (Aβ) pathology in Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients. The AMYPAD consortium set out to integrate existing literature and recent work from the consortium to provide clinical context-of-use recommendations for the CL scale. Compared to histopathology, visual reads, and cerebrospinal fluid, CL quantification accurately reflects the amount of AD pathology. With high certainty, a CL value below 10 excludes the presence of Aβ pathology, while a value above 30 corresponds well with pathological amounts. Values falling in between these two cutoffs ("intermediate range") are related to an increased risk of disease progression. Together, CL quantification is a valuable adjunct to visual assessments of amyloid-PET images. An abnormal amyloid biomarker assessment is a key criterion to determine eligibility for anti-amyloid disease-modifying therapies, and amyloid-PET quantification can add further value by precisely monitoring amyloid clearance, and hence guiding patient management decisions. HIGHLIGHTS: Centiloid (CL) quantification robustly reflects of the amount of Aβ pathology. CL < 10/CL > 30 reflects Aβ-negativity/positivity thresholds with high certainty. CL quantification is a valuable adjunct to visual assessments of amyloid-PET. CL quantification can support trial design and treatment management. CL quantification could support the identification of early or emerging Aβ pathology.
