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

backgroundWe aimed to investigate the prevalence of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) and its correlations with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and cognitive impairment in an autopsy-confirmed cohort donated to a human brain bank in Beijing, China.

methodsA total of 483 subjects were neuropathologically evaluated based on standardized protocols. Descriptive statistics and ordinal logistic regression models were used to estimate the correlation between CAA, AD, apolipoprotein E (

resultsNeuropathological assessment revealed that 53 of 483 subjects (11%) had CAA without AD, 78 of 483 (16%) had AD without CAA, 98 of 483 (20%) had both CAA and AD, and 254 of 483 (53%) had neither condition. A significant correlation was confirmed between CAA severity and AD. Subjects with both CAA and AD exhibited aggravated cognitive impairment. DISCUSSION: Our results indicate a substantial prevalence of CAA that is frequently comorbid with AD and may exacerbate cognitive decline in the elderly population in China. Highlights: First reporting of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) based on an autopsy-confirmed cohort from China.The prevalence of CAA was high in the elderly Chinese sample.Age and apolipoprotein E (
