Evolving Alzheimer's Disease Clinical Practice: Updated Diagnostic Criteria, Fluid Biomarkers, and Special Considerations for Anti-Amyloid Therapies.
Article in Psychiatry investigation, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectiveThis review overviewed the recent paradigm shifts in the diagnosis and management of Alzheimer's disease (AD), emphasizing the 2024 Alzheimer's Association (AA) revised criteria, advances in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood-based biomarkers (BBMs), and practical considerations for anti-amyloid monoclonal antibody therapy.
methodsWe conducted a narrative appraisal of consensus frameworks (2018 National Institute on Aging-Alzheimer's Association [NIA-AA] amyloid, tau, and neurodegeneration [AT(N)] and the 2024 AA criteria), clinical practice guidance from AA released in 2025, regulatory status of CSF and BBMs. Intended-use settings (triage vs. confirmatory) of BBMs and implementation of anti-amyloid anti-body treatments (lecanemab or donanemab) in real-world practice in Korea were also reviewed.
resultsThe 2024 AA criteria define AD biologically and designate A and T as core biomarkers; Core 1 biomarkers can establish AD irrespective of symptoms, whereas Core 2 biomarkers refine staging. A two-cutoff BBM strategy (positive/intermediate/negative) reduces misclassification and guides confirmatory CSF/positron emission tomography (PET) or retesting. BBMs now approach CSF/PET accuracy for amyloid detection, enable triage and, in selected settings, confirmation, and show utility for monitoring treatment response. Integration of clinical stages (1-6) with biological stages (A-D) clarifies syndrome-pathology discordance. Special scenarios-maintenance after induction, APOE ε4 homozygotes, Down syndrome, and serious mental illness-require individualized risk-benefit assessment. In South Korea, constrained access to tau PET and some BBMs necessitates Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition, Text Revision-anchored evaluation with selective biomarker testing.
conclusionBiomarker-oriented diagnosis and anti-amyloid therapies are reshaping AD care. Priorities include rigorous validation of BBMs across populations, equitable access to core biomarkers, safety strategies, and real-world evidence to implement maintenance and special-population care pathways.
