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

Background: Objective tests that can be used to identify neurodegenerative diseases and neuropsychiatric disorders are urgently needed. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), a novel blood-based detection method, in differentiating neurodegenerative diseases and neuropsychiatric disorders. Additionally, we aim to assess the synergistic diagnostic performance of combining SERS with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) technology for Alzheimer's disease (AD), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and late-life depression (LLD). Methods: In total, 23 patients with AD, 24 with MCI, 20 with LLD, and 20 cognitively normal (control) individuals were enrolled. ELISA and SERS were used to test various biomarkers in the AD, MCI, LLD, and control groups. Results: Amyloid-β, tau, brain-derived neurotrophic factor, proinflammatory cytokine IL-1β, and growth differentiation factor-15 levels as measured using ELISA significantly differed among the four groups ( Conclusions: Combining SERS and ELISA can significantly increase diagnostic accuracy for AD, MCI, and LLD. The findings are expected to provide potential therapeutic targets for precise intervention in these diseases, thereby contributing to improved clinical stratification and personalized treatment strategies. Clinical trial registry number: ChiCTR2300076307 (30/09/2023).
