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

Predicting the transition from mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to Alzheimer's disease (AD) has important clinical significance for dementia prevention and improving patient prognosis. Multimodal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques (including structural MRI, functional MRI, and cerebral perfusion MRI) can yield information on the morphology, structure, and function of the brain from multiple dimensions, providing a key basis for revealing the pathophysiological mechanisms during the conversion from MCI to AD. Artificial intelligence (AI) methods based on deep learning and machine learning, with their powerful data processing and pattern recognition capabilities, have shown great potential in mining the features of multimodal MRI data and constructing prediction models for MCI conversion. Therefore, this paper systematically reviews the research progress of multimodal MRI techniques in capturing brain changes related to MCI conversion, as well as the practical experience of AI algorithms in constructing efficient prediction models, analyses the current technical challenges faced by the research, and discusses future directions, with the goal of providing a scientific reference for the early and accurate prediction of MCI conversion and the formulation of intervention strategies.
