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

introductionThis study leverages a large, diverse cohort to characterize ethnoracial differences in amyloid positron emission tomography (PET) positivity and identify social determinants of health (SDOHs) contributing to these differences.

methodsWe assessed differences in amyloid PET positivity by ethnoracial group (Black, Latinx, or all other races/ethnicities [AORE]) among Medicare beneficiaries with cognitive impairment. Secondary analyses associated various SDOHs with amyloid PET positivity.

resultsAmong 5757 participants (21.7% Black, 20.3% Latinx, 58.1% AORE), we found lower odds of amyloid positivity in Black (odds ratio [OR]: 0.72, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.62-0.83) and Latinx (OR: 0.78, 95% CI: 0.67-0.91) compared to AORE. Individuals in the comfortable (OR: 1.22, 95% CI: 1.05-1.42) and distressed (OR: 1.40, 95% CI: 1.08-1.82) Area Deprivation Index (ADI) groups had greater odds of amyloid positivity than individuals in the prosperous group. DISCUSSION: Amyloid PET positivity rates were lower among Black and Latinx individuals and higher among individuals in more deprived ADI categories. This has potential implications for anti-amyloid therapies.
