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

introductionCerebrovascular deficits, including cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), play a key role in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis. Here, we characterize the susceptibility of the WSB/EiJ genetic context to human AD-relevant cerebrovascular phenotypes.

methodsCAA and parenchymal plaque analysis and in vivo neurovascular imaging were performed on WSB.APP/PS1 brains. Transcriptomics was performed on WSB.APP/PS1 and B6.APP/PS1 brains. B6 and WSB cerebrovascular reactivity was assayed ex vivo. Additional CAA and parenchymal plaque analysis was performed on WSB.APP/PS1 mice with APOE

resultsWSB.APP/PS1 brains exhibited plaque deposition, CAA, transcriptomic overlap with human AD, myelin deficits, cerebrovascular/metabolic uncoupling, and altered cerebrovascular morphology. Aged WSB vasculature retained vasoreactivity but exhibited increased stiffness. Compared to WSB.APOE DISCUSSION: These data illustrate the utility of the WSB genetic context to model CAA and uncover vascular contributions to AD.
