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

Objective: To compare PET and plasma-based temporal modeling of amyloid and tau biomarkers in Alzheimer's disease. Methods: Longitudinal amyloid PET, Results: Plasma-based models generated similar results to PET for EAOA and ETOA, with stronger model agreement for ETOA than EAOA. Accuracy of estimated onset age compared to actual onset age was high within modality with slightly greater error when comparing across modalities (i.e. plasma to PET). For both plasma and PET models, earlier ETOA was associated with younger EAOA, female sex, and ≥1 ApoE ε4 allele. Earlier dementia onset after ETOA was associated with later ETOA for both plasma and PET models, while male sex was associated with shorter tau to dementia gap in plasma models. Interpretation: Temporal modeling of plasma biomarkers provides comparable information to PET-based models, particularly for tau onset age. Plasma-based temporal modeling can serve as a widely accessible tool for clinical assessment of biological disease duration that places the patient on the disease timeline, which may allow for improved discussion of prognosis and treatment decisions.
