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

background and purposeThis study aimed to characterize the clinical heterogeneity of Alzheimer's disease (AD) by implementing an integrated biological and clinical staging scheme for AD.

methodsClinical staging was performed in 193 participants from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative based on cognitive scores, while biological staging was performed based on global tau deposition in tau positron-emission tomography (PET). The discrepancy between clinical and biological stages was quantified as standardized residuals (W-scores), and classified into the following groups: concordant clinical and biological stages (W₀), worse clinical stage (W

resultsRelative to the W₀ group, the W

conclusionsThe integration of clinical and biological staging has significant potential in clinical practice by providing information about copathologies, underlying neurodegeneration, and the progression of AD.
