An online vignette study of diagnostic testing: Racial and ethnic differences in Alzheimer's disease diagnosis confidence and stigma.
Article in Alzheimer's & dementia (Amsterdam, Netherlands). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
introductionUnderstanding how biomarker testing affects Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis confidence and AD stigma among race and ethnicity groups is essential for supporting early diagnosis and treatment.
methodsAdults (
resultsBlack participants showed the smallest increase (11.86 points) in diagnosis confidence of all race groups when a brain scan was included in the diagnostic evaluation. AD diagnosis confidence changed across diagnostic evaluation categories based on level and type of AD stigma domain and race group. DISCUSSION: Use of brain scans in evaluations can heighten diagnosis confidence in all race groups. Yet, no group had 100% confidence in an AD diagnosis with any evaluation. Recommendations are discussed. Highlights: Confidence in an Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis varies across racial groups.Within racial groups, AD diagnosis confidence differs with diagnostics.Even with cutting-edge biomarker testing, no racial group had 100% confidence in an AD diagnosis.Patient-centered care and systemic changes are needed to widen distribution of diagnostic technologies and improve access to care.
