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

introductionPlasma phosphorylated tau 217 (p-tau217) has emerged as a promising blood-based biomarker for Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis, but cross-platform comparability remains unclear. We evaluated three platforms-single-molecule array (Simoa), Ella, and Lumipulse.

methodsWe measured plasma p-tau217 from 113 participants underwent amyloid and tau positron emission tomography (PET; 55 AD, 36 controls, 22 non-AD; classified by amyloid PET status). Diagnostic performance and PET correlations were assessed across all three platforms.

resultsAll assays distinguished amyloid-positive from -negative individuals with high accuracy (89%-95%). Simoa showed superior sensitivity, Ella the smallest gray zone in a two-cutoff framework, and Lumipulse strongest tau correlation ( DISCUSSION: All platforms accurately detect AD with platform-specific differences, which inform platform selection for clinical and research applications.
