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

Objectives: Bipolar disorder (BD) has been associated with an elevated risk of Alzheimer's Disease (AD). We assessed AD biomarkers in BD and tested whether epigenetic aging (EA) acceleration is a potential mechanism driving variability in these markers. Design Setting Participants: Cross-sectional study of n=59 living individuals with BD and n=20 age- and sex-equated control participants, as well as analyses of postmortem brain samples (Brodmann area 9/46) from n=46 individuals with BD. Measurements: Amyloid beta (Aβ) Results: Individuals with BD showed an increase in Aβ Conclusions: Our results provide preliminary evidence that EA may explain the variability in AD risk in individuals with BD and could act as a target for preventing dementia and AD in BD.
