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

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disorder worldwide, for which aging represents the main risk factor. As the global elderly population expands, the prevalence of Alzheimer's disease escalates rapidly. Notably, as AD brain lesions may start 15-20 years before the appearance of the first symptoms, early diagnosis or prognosis of AD is of paramount importance for better patient treatment. Based on the absence of effective cure or early diagnosis of AD, this meta-analysis investigates the differentially expressed genes between Alzheimer's and a healthy brain and identifies genes that can serve as risk factors for the disease or biomarkers of diagnostic, prognostic, or pharmacological value. Microarray datasets were collected from public repositories, following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA 2020) guidelines. Quality control and data normalization were performed. Differentially expressed gene (DEG) lists were created for each study and combined through a Mosteller-Bush meta-analysis, resulting in a final list of DEGs. This list was filtered using an adjusted
