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

Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is a neurodegenerative disorder with motor and cognitive impairments. Whereas motor symptoms are associated with subcortical tau deposits, the mechanisms underlying the cognitive symptoms remain unclear due to heterogeneous and primarily subcortical distribution of pathological tau deposits. Here, we combined tau-PET (tau positron emission tomography) using a high-contrast probe we developed with a normative connectome in 37 patients with PSP and 48 healthy controls. We found that tau deposition sites functionally connected to a common cortical network that could not be derived from atrophy. This network predominantly overlapped with canonical action-mode and frontoparietal networks, which support adaptive, goal-directed behavior. Whereas the extent of primary tau deposition predicted motor symptoms, the normative connectivity strength from tau deposition sites to the identified cortical network explained the severity of cognitive deficits. These findings suggest a previously unknown mechanism that cognitive, but not motor, deficits in PSP arise from remote effects of tau deposition-independent of atrophy-via convergent connectivity to a common cortical network.
