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

Cortical amyloid burden is associated with neuronal and vascular abnormalities. The retina shares significant structural and physiological similarities with the brain. This study assessed the association of retinal microstructural and microvascular signs with cortical amyloid burden in the prospective Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities-Positron Emission Tomography study. One hundred and twenty-four participants without a diagnosis of dementia underwent florbetapir PET (2011-13) and optical coherence tomography and optical coherence tomography angiography imaging (2017-19). Retinal nerve fibre thickness, total macular thickness and the ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer thickness were derived from the optical coherence tomography scan. Vessel density and the foveal avascular zone were measured on the 3 × 3 mm
