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

introductionWe sought to determine if a proteomic profile approach developed to detect Alzheimer's disease (AD) in the general population would apply to adults with Down syndrome (DS).

methodsPlasma samples were obtained from 398 members of a community-based cohort of adults with DS. A total of n = 186 participants were determined to be non-demented and without mild cognitive impairment (MCI) at baseline and throughout follow-up; n = 50 had prevalent MCI; n = 42 had prevalent AD.

resultsThe proteomic profile yielded an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.92, sensitivity (SN) = 0.80, and specificity (SP) = 0.98 detecting prevalent MCI. For detecting prevalent AD, the proteomic profile yielded an AUC of 0.89, SN = 0.81, and SP = 0.97. The overall profile closely resembled our previously published profile of AD in the general population. DISCUSSION: These data provide evidence of the applicability of our blood-based algorithm for detecting MCI/AD among adults with DS.
