Systematic post-translational modification genome wide identifies therapeutic targets for Alzheimer's disease: evidence from multi-cohort analysis.
Article in The journal of prevention of Alzheimer's disease, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe rapid increase in the incidence of Alzheimer's disease (AD) has raised concerns, given its profound effects on both society and the economy. Despite extensive research efforts in this area, there are no existing treatments that have the ability to change the progression of the disease.
methodsTo identify the distinct subtypes of AD, consensus clustering was employed. Following this, module genes were identified through the implementation of WGCNA. In addition, the investigation included the identification of hub genes through the application of machine learning. Ultimately, a thorough analysis was performed utilizing a methodical strategy to perform post-translational modification (PTM) genome wide.
resultsGO and KEGG analyses were conducted by examining of 21 different types of PTMs, revealing that the majority of these genes play key roles in the PTM pathways, as well as AD-related pathways. Correlation analysis revealed that these PTM were significantly correlated with gamma secretase activity, beta secretase activity, amyloid-beta 42, clinical dementia rating, Braak stage, plaque, and neurofibrillary tangle. Then, two distinct subtypes of PTM were identified, each characterized by unique clinical characteristic. By utilizing machine learning, we developed an PTM.score, and has shown impressive predictive capabilities for AD when tested against various datasets (brain AUC: 0.859, blood AUC: 0.898), indicating its potential utility in clinical settings for risk stratification and therapeutic decision-making. Moreover, our investigation led to the identification of two genes (TRIM47 and LNX1) that may represent potential drug targets for AD (brain tissues or blood samples). Research further indicated a potential correlation between TRIM47 and concentrations of CSF Aβ (OR 1.068 (1.029-1.108)), CSF p-tau (OR 1.315 (1.136-1.524)), and total hippocampal (OR 1.176 (1.058-1.307)).
conclusionsThe findings from this study not only enhance our comprehension of the underlying mechanisms of AD but also serve to inform and direct future initiatives in drug discovery. By focusing on TRIM47, the work paves the way for identifying innovative therapeutic strategies.
