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

The early detection of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is thought to be important for effective intervention and management. Here, we explore deep learning methods for the early detection of AD. We consider both genetic risk factors and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data. However, we found that the genetic factors do not notably enhance the AD prediction by imaging. Thus, we focus on building an effective imaging-only model. In particular, we utilize data from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI), employing a 3D Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to analyze fMRI scans. Despite the limitations posed by our dataset (small size and imbalanced nature), our CNN model demonstrates accuracy levels reaching 92.8% and an ROC of 0.95. Our research highlights the complexities inherent in integrating multimodal medical datasets. It also demonstrates the potential of deep learning in medical imaging for AD prediction.
