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

introductionFunctional decline in activities of daily living (ADL)-advanced (AADL), instrumental (IADL), and basic (BADL)-is a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, integrated clinical-neuroanatomical evidence on progression across the AD continuum remains limited, particularly in Latin American populations.

methodsWe studied 138 older adults with subjective cognitive complaints (SCCs), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and Alzheimer's disease dementia (ADD). ADL domains were assessed using the Technology-Activities of Daily Living Questionnaire. Structural magnetic resonance imaging data were analyzed using voxel-based morphometry (VBM) to identify gray matter (GM) correlates of ADL performance.

resultsA hierarchical decline from AADL to IADL to BADL differentiated clinical stages. SCC and MCI differed mainly in AADL performance, whereas ADD showed decline across all domains. VBM revealed GM correlates consistent with this hierarchy, with distinct but partially overlapping substrates for each ADL domain. DISCUSSION: These findings underscore a diagnostically informative and anatomically organized progression of ADL decline.
