Commentary on "It is time to share Alzheimer biomarker results in dementia with Lewy bodies".
Article in Alzheimer's & dementia (Amsterdam, Netherlands). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Many people with dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) have evidence of Alzheimer's disease (AD) co-pathology, which can be assessed in vivo using biomarkers. In this issue, Armstrong and colleagues argue that it is now timely to disclose such AD biomarker results to people with DLB. They provide logical and powerful arguments, including the right for people to know and the value of this information in informing outcome and management. However, there are also important caveats to consider and a careful balance needs to be maintained between, on the one hand, the right to know and convey clinically useful information and, on the other, acknowledging the real uncertainty that exists regarding the true diagnostic and management implications of AD biomarkers in an individual with a DLB rather than an AD clinico-pathological syndrome.
