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

introductionMost available p-tau217 immunoassays have similar performances. It is unclear if this is due to the use of the same antibody (the "ALZpath antibody"). We established and evaluated a novel p-tau217 assay that employs an alternative antibody, and benchmarked the results against ALZpath-p-tau217.

methodsFollowing development and analytical validation of the University of Pittsburgh ("Pitt-p-tau217") method, clinical verification was performed in three independent cohorts (n=363).

resultsPitt-p-tau217 demonstrated high between-run stability, linearity, and specificity. Clinically, Pitt-p-tau217 differentiated neuropathologically confirmed DISCUSSION: The new Pitt-p-tau217 assay exhibits high and reproducible classification accuracies for identifying individuals with biological evidence of AD, equivalent to the widely used ALZpath-p-tau217.
