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

Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology is typically associated with reduced brain volume and cortical thickness, interpreted as neurodegeneration. However, several cross-sectional studies in cognitively unimpaired individuals have paradoxically reported larger brain volume and thicker cortex in the presence of amyloid-β (Aβ), suggesting that Aβ-brain structure associations may not follow a simple linear pattern early in the disease. We leveraged over a decade of longitudinal data from the PREVENT-AD cohort (N=367, mean follow-up 7.17 years, range 0-11.27 years) to investigate how Aβ burden related to both cross-sectional levels and longitudinal changes in brain volume, cortical thickness, and cortical tissue mean diffusivity (MD
