Scaling Alzheimer's Care: The Case for Specialized Treatment Clinics.
Article in Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundThe approval of amyloid-targeting monoclonal antibodies has transformed Alzheimer's disease (AD) treatment, shifting the field from symptomatic management to targeting the underlying pathology. These therapies require specialized care models to manage the selection, treatment, and monitoring of eligible patients.
methodsHere, we describe the implementation of the Anti-Amyloid Treatment Clinic (KU-AATC) at the University of Kansas Health System, a dedicated clinic model designed to streamline access to amyloid-clearing therapies and to provide safe, efficient patient care. We detail the KU-AATC's structured approach, including a multidisciplinary team with advanced practice providers (APPs), leading patient evaluation and shared decision-making, and tailored workflows to ensure timely access to treatment. We review data from the clinic's first 18 months.
resultsThe KU-AATC model demonstrates a feasible approach to managing the complex needs of amyloid-targeting therapy for AD.
conclusionsOur findings suggest that a specialized clinic structure can support safe, accessible, and efficient care for AD patients, potentially serving as a scalable model for healthcare systems adapting to the demands of emerging AD treatments. Expanding similar clinics may address neurologist shortages and improve equitable access to advanced therapies.
