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

objectiveAccurately predicting future hemorrhagic events in patients with cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) remains a major clinical challenge. It is unknown whether cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers of amyloid-beta (Aβ) pathology are associated with increased hemorrhage risk in this population.

methodsWe analyzed consecutive patients meeting Boston criteria version 2.0 for probable CAA with CSF Aβ data obtained during diagnostic workup. The primary outcome was incident intracranial hemorrhage, including lobar intracerebral, convexity subarachnoid, and non-traumatic subdural hemorrhage. Secondary outcomes were ischemic stroke and all-cause mortality. Associations between low CSF Aβ biomarkers and outcomes were analyzed using Cox proportional hazards models, adjusted for disseminated cortical superficial siderosis, and prior intracerebral hemorrhage.

resultsAmong 109 patients (median age: 77 years, 42% female), 16 (15%) experienced incident intracranial hemorrhage and 11 (10%) incident ischemic stroke during a median follow-up of 2.93 years (interquartile range: 1.43-5.03). In multivariate Cox regression models low CSF Aβ biomarkers were independently associated with incident intracranial hemorrhage (Aβ

interpretationLow CSF Aβ biomarkers are independently associated with future symptomatic hemorrhage in CAA patients. A composite risk score may support individualized risk stratification and guide clinical decision-making. ANN NEUROL 2026;100:391-399.
