Treatment of vascular dementia: evidence from epidemiologic studies.
Article in Current treatment options in cardiovascular medicine, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
This article discusses the most relevant recent evidence on the prevention and treatment of vascular dementia from epidemiologic studies. Vascular dementia is the most common form of dementia after Alzheimer's disease and remains the only one that is preventable, although most of our knowledge about primary and secondary prevention of vascular dementia comes from direct extrapolation from works in stroke. Furthermore, at present there are no approved therapeutic agents for the treatment of vascular dementia. Recently, however, a number of reasonable studies on vascular dementia have been available. It is clear that rigorous control of vascular risk factors is important in primary and secondary prevention of vascular dementia, and perhaps in ameliorating its mild form. A rational therapeutic approach to the treatment of vascular dementia should be based on an understanding of its broad clinical spectrum and the diverse causes that may be responsive to currently available treatments.
