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

Introduction: The impact of different neuropathologies on deep brain structures remains to be understood. Here, we distinguish subcortical and limbic volumetry in neurodegenerative diseases involving p-tau, α-synuclein and TDP-43. Methods: We acquired neuropathological measures and brain segmentations from postmortem analysis of 132 donors with Alzheimer's disease (AD; n=60), Lewy body disease (LBD; n=26), Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration with TDP-43 (FTLD-TDP; n=21) and FTLD-Tau (n=25). Results: In FTLD-TDP and FTLD-Tau, thalamus and striatum volumes were lower than in AD or LBD. While AD had diffuse cortico-subcortical and cortico-limbic morphometric associations, LBD had more limited parieto-occipital cortico-limbic associations. FTLD-TDP had cortico-subcortical associations while FTLD-Tau had cortico-limbic associations. In AD and FTLD-Tau, hippocampal volumes correlated with p-tau burden, neuron loss and gliosis. In LBD, thalamic α-synuclein severity was associated with subcortical and limbic volumes. In FTLD-TDP, TDP-43 load had no such significant associations. Discussion: Postmortem neuroimaging reveals unique structure-structure and structure-pathology relationships across regions and diseases.
