Predicting dementia: role of dementia risk indices.
Article in Future neurology, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
There are currently more than 5 million people in the USA living with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia, and prevalence is expected to triple over the next 40 years. As new strategies for prevention and treatment are developed, it will be critically important to be able to identify older adults who do not currently have dementia but have a high risk of developing symptoms within a few years so that they can be targeted for monitoring, prevention and early treatment. In other fields, prognostic models and risk indices are often used to identify high-risk individuals (e.g., Framingham Heart Index and Breast Cancer Risk Assessment Tool). The objective of this paper is to describe the development of Dementia Risk Indices and to discuss the potential for these tools to be incorporated into clinical and research settings for the identification of individuals with a high risk of dementia.
