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

introductionAlzheimer's disease (AD) is heterogeneous, complicating diagnosis and prognosis. Uncovering patterns that link abnormalities across amyloid-tau-neurodegeneration (A-T-N) framework may improve prediction of clinical diagnosis.

methodsWe applied SuperBigFLICA (SBF), a semi-supervised multimodal data fusion method, to maps of gray matter density, cortical thickness, pial surface area, amyloid PET, and tau PET in 274 ADNI-3 participants. The model was trained to derive 50 latent components most predictive of a continuous measure of cognitive decline. Latent components' subject loadings were subsequently used to predict diagnosis (cognitively normal, mild cognitive impairment, dementia) and

resultsWhile SuperBigFLICA modestly predicted cognitive decline (r = 0.21), SBF loadings-based models outperformed baselines (AUROC = 0.80 for diagnosis; 0.83 for DISCUSSION: Semi-supervised multimodal fusion improves prediction and reveals interpretable imaging patterns that predict
