Lecanemab treatment for mild alzheimer's disease with high risk of cerebral hemorrhage: a case report.
Article in BMC neurology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundLecanemab has been approved for the treatment of mild cognitive impairment due to Alzheimer's disease (AD) and mild AD dementia based on the efficacy in slowing cognitive decline and preliminary safety data from the phase Ⅲ Clarity AD trial. However, this trial excluded patients with high risk of cerebral hemorrhage, such as individuals with intracranial aneurysms or > 4 microhemorrhages. CASE PRESENTATION: A 70-year-old male with mild AD, intracranial aneurysm, microhemorrhages, and APOE ε3/ε4 genotype received lecanemab after multidisciplinary evaluation and informed consent. Over six months of intensive monitoring, cognitive function stabilized with no deterioration, daily activities were preserved, microhemorrhages remained stable (with one new small lesion noted at 3 months), and no aneurysm rupture or severe adverse events (including amyloid-related imaging abnormalities) occurred.
conclusionsThis case suggests that, despite hemorrhage risks, lecanemab may have a manageable risk-benefit profile in selected real-world AD patients under intensive monitoring and multidisciplinary care, with its application beyond clinical trial criteria requiring more nuanced and individualized consideration.
