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

Dementia is a syndrome that affects millions of people in the world, and Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common cause. The diagnosis of AD begins with cognitive symptoms such as mild cognitive impairment (MCI) but requires the demonstration and quantification of the underlying neuropathological processes through the measurement of specific biomarkers. Among these, the phosphorylated tau protein at threonine 181 (p-tau 181) is considered specific for AD diagnosis in people with MCI. In this work, we report the detection of p-tau 181 spanning from physiological to pathological concentrations in cerebrospinal fluids from patients with MCI. The proposed sensor is based on an electrolyte-gated organic transistor functionalized with specific anti-p-tau 181 antibodies. We analyzed the multiparametric sensor response using a Langmuir model to extract the thermodynamic affinity constant, resulting in values between 10
