A paradigm of the diagnosis and treatment for the whole process of Alzheimer's disease.
Review in Annals of medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionThe clinical management of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is still constrained by the fact that its incompletely understood pathogenesis, difficulty in early diagnosis and the limited long-term treatment benefits so far. This article summarizes a regional perspective on the diagnosis and treatment of AD from the Alzheimer's Disease Chinese (ADC) guideline working group, aiming to improve the whole-process management of AD. DISCUSSION: The article presents a comprehensive overview of a proposed diagnostic and therapeutic paradigm for AD, consisting of a three-dimensional diagnostic framework and a sequential therapy concept. Crucially, while biological biomarkers of AD are present at all stages, they may be unrelated to clinical severity. To address this, the diagnostic framework combines core clinical criteria with early-changing biomarkers, syndrome staging and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM)-based pattern phenotyping. This integrated, simplified and practical approach enhances diagnostic certainty and its correlation with clinical severity. This sequential therapy is a stage-adaptive treatment plan adjusted according to the disease progression, utilizing a dynamic, multi-target combination therapy. Unlike the existing unchanging single-target therapies, this approach provides specific mechanistic interventions tailored to each stage to prolong efficacy and delay disease progression.
conclusionsThis paradigm provides a whole-process, stage-oriented approach to AD diagnosis and management that may improve translational relevance, clinical applicability and continuity of care in real-world settings. Future cohort-based validation studies are needed to confirm its diagnostic performance and clinical benefits, and to refine its implementation.
