Fig. 3 Absolute Change in p-tau217 by Treatment Group and Continuous Age. Panel A: All Participants. Panel B: E4 Carriers. Loess curves and corresponding 95 % CIs are degree 2 with cubic interpolation and maximum smoothing and reflect predicted values from robust regression models with terms for mean-centered baseline ptau-217, treatment group, mean-centered age, and the interaction between treatment group and age. In Panel A, the relationship between age and absolute change in p-tau217 is significant in both treatment groups (P = 0.0286 and P = 0.0001 for the placebo and obicetrapib groups, respectively), and the lack of interaction between age and treatment group (Pinteraction=0.61) indicates that there is no statistical evidence that the reduction in absolute change by obicetrapib depended on age. In Panel B, the relationship between age and absolute change in p-tau217 is not significant in either treatment group (P = 0.62 and P = 0.17 for the placebo and obicetrapib groups, respectively) and the lack of interaction between age and treatment group (Pinteraction=0.58) indicates that there is no statistical evidence that the reduction in absolute change by obicetrapib depended on age.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
