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

introductionNeuroimaging genetics have advanced Alzheimer's disease (AD) research, yet frameworks mechanistically connecting genes to neurological outcomes via functional genomics are needed to elucidate genetic associations. To address this challenge, we assessed relationships between AD-associated variants and disease via their impact on gene expression and neuroimaging phenotypes.

methodsWe mapped established AD genes to neuroimaging traits using NeuroimaGene atlas and predicted transcript-driven AD neurological features by comparing gene-derived neuroimaging features to clinical neuroimaging data. Genetic correlation and covariance analyses characterized shared genetic architecture between AD endophenotypes and neuroimaging features and identified neuroimaging features associated with dementia family history.

resultsOur analyses implicate DISCUSSION: Our findings prioritize AD genes whose regulation is associated with vulnerable brain regions, offering a potential mechanistic framework for downstream functional validation.
