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

introductionAlthough cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers reflect neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease (AD), it remains unclear whether these biomarkers track neurodegeneration in early-onset Alzheimer's disease (EOAD).

methodsIn 80 EOAD patients, we examined correlations between eight CSF biomarker levels and cortical thickness decreases within the EOAD cortical atrophy signature. Significant correlations were then entered into a multiple regression analysis. We also examined contributions of EOAD atrophy and CSF biomarkers to cognitive impairment.

resultsThe levels of four CSF biomarkers correlated to EOAD signature atrophy. Stepwise regression analyses revealed that CSF neurofilament light chain (NfL) levels best predicted EOAD signature atrophy. Multiple regression showed EOAD signature atrophy combined with CSF NfL levels explained more variance in cognitive impairment than either factor alone. DISCUSSION: Within EOAD patients, CSF NfL levels relate to the magnitude of cortical atrophy, and a combination of EOAD signature atrophy and CSF NfL levels most robustly predict cognitive impairment.
