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

Therapeutic strategies targeting amyloid-β (Aβ) in Alzheimer disease (AD) include antibodies directed against fibrillar amyloid plaques or soluble amyloid-β (Aβ) species, yet how these approaches reshape brain pathology remains poorly understood. Postmortem neuropathological assessment is crucial for evaluating the degree of Aβ removal, providing information and context that fluid biomarkers and positron emission tomography (PET) alone cannot, and guiding development of more effective disease modifying therapies for AD. In this study, using high resolution mass spectrometry we quantitatively measured Aβ and tau proteoforms in postmortem brain tissue homogenates to evaluate the impact of long-term treatment with anti-Aβ monoclonal antibodies gantenerumab or solanezumab in a clinical trial of dominantly inherited Alzheimer disease (DIAD). Symptomatic DIAD participants who had been treated for ~ 4 years with anti-Aβ monoclonal antibodies (gantenerumab, n=4 or solanezumab, n=4) were compared with untreated, symptomatic DIAD mutation carriers (n=40) and with age-relevant non-DIAD controls with modest or no plaque pathology (n=18). Consistent with antemortem Aβ-PET findings in the clinical trial, gantenerumab-treated participant samples showed significantly lower levels of specific Aβ proteoforms (Aβ
