Mild cognitive impairment-to-Alzheimer's dementia progression risk: the contribution of the Interceptor project.
Article in Alzheimer's & dementia : the journal of the Alzheimer's Association, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundMild cognitive impairment (MCI) is an intermediate stage between normal and pathological brain aging, with 30% to 50% progressing to dementia within 3 to 5 years. Early identification of individuals at high risk of progression is crucial for public health strategies.
methodsThe INTERCEPTOR project included 398 MCI individuals. Baseline assessment included harmonized procedures for sociodemographic, clinical, neuropsychological, genetic (apolipoprotein E), cerebrospinal fluid (amyloid beta tau), electroencephalogram (brain connectivity), magnetic resonance imaging (hippocampal volumetry), and fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography. The baseline and follow-up were completed by 351 individuals with MCI with neuropsychological tests every 6 months for 3 years.
resultsDementia developed in 104 individuals (29.6%), including 85 (22.4%) who met core clinical criteria for probable and possible Alzheimer's disease dementia. A Cox model combining clinical and sociodemographic data achieved a concordance index of 72%, which increased to 82% when neuropsychology and biomarkers were added. DISCUSSION: The INTERCEPTOR nomogram represents a tool for predicting dementia progression risk, supporting public health strategies, including screening for risk assessment and risk/benefit ratio in innovative treatments.
