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

AIMS/

introductionOlder people with diabetes mellitus are at high risk for cognitive impairment or dementia. The clinical predictors for cognitive decline in older people with diabetes mellitus were elucidated. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis was a secondary analysis of a vitamin B

resultsA total of 152 participants had normal cognition (Clinical Dementia Rating 0) and 119 had cognitive impairment (Clinical Dementia Rating 0.5) at baseline. After 27 months, 41 participants had cognitive decline, 36 of whom were cognitively normal at baseline. Multiple logistic regression showed no significant clinical predictor of global cognitive decline. Higher high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) was associated with better executive performance at month 27 (β = 0.359, P < 0.001). Multilevel modeling showed that the highest tertile of HDL-C was associated with better executive function z-scores than the lowest tertile of HDL-C at all time-points.

conclusionsAmong older people with diabetes mellitus, higher serum HDL-C was associated with better executive function.
