Use of Amyloid Positron-Emission Tomography to Diagnose Alzheimer's Disease in Clinical Practice in South Korea: Expert Recommendations.
Review in Journal of clinical neurology (Seoul, Korea), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Amyloid positron-emission tomography (PET) is the optimal method for detecting amyloid plaque deposition in patients experiencing cognitive decline, which is essential for diagnosing Alzheimer's disease. However, its clinical application globally has been restricted by the high cost, short radiotracer half-life, and significant accessibility challenges. In particular, the lack of treatment options following diagnosis has been considered the largest obstacle to using amyloid PET as a diagnostic tool. Consequently, the current appropriate-use recommendations for amyloid PET tend to support restricting its use. However, the relatively low cost and superior accessibility of amyloid PET in South Korea have resulted in it being used much more frequently in clinical settings than in other countries. The recent introduction of disease-modifying drugs has increased the importance and frequency of amyloid PET usage. Considering these circumstances, this article presents expert opinions on the appropriate use of amyloid PET in South Korea based on existing recommendations and survey results from dementia experts in South Korea.
