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

introductionAnti-amyloid therapies such as lecanemab require magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) screening to exclude patients with > 4 gradient-recalled echo (GRE)-detected microhemorrhages or any superficial siderosis (SS). Although GRE and susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) are both accepted, they differ in detection performance.

methodsWe retrospectively analyzed 224 eligibility MRIs with paired GRE and SWI from a single academic health system. Six neuroradiologists assessed a 20-scan reliability subset; the remaining 204 scans were assigned to one rater for hemorrhagic lesion detection and MRI-based eligibility classification. Interobserver reliability was calculated using intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs), and sequence differences were evaluated using non-parametric tests.

resultsSWI detected more microhemorrhages than GRE (mean 1.24 vs. 0.67, DISCUSSION: SWI identifies more exclusionary hemorrhagic findings and demonstrates greater reproducibility than GRE.
