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

Bispecific antibodies utilizing the transferrin receptor (TfR) for transport into the brain are being developed for both therapeutic and diagnostic targeting of the amyloid-β (Aβ) protein that deposits in the Alzheimer's disease (AD) brain. In contrast to traditional antibodies, TfR-binding bispecific antibodies display rapid and efficient brain uptake. However, due to differences in pharmacokinetic properties, it has been challenging to directly compare mono- and bispecific antibody brain uptake in vivo. Here, we have studied the Aβ antibody Bapineuzumab (Bapi) and its bispecific variant Bapi-Fab8D3, which contains a fragment of the TfR-binding antibody 8D3, enabling receptor-mediated transcytosis into the brain. Both antibodies were engineered to reduce binding to the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn), thereby increasing their clearance from the blood. The antibodies were radiolabeled with fluorine-18 (
