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

purpose of reviewDementia detection in the community is challenging. The purpose of this paper is to review methods of dementia screening and provide a useable algorithm for screening for dementia a variety of clinical settings. RECENT

findingsIn recent years, a number of brief performance and informant-based assessments have been developed and validated in research, clinical, and community samples. These assessments are now complemented by patient self-reports that afford the ability to detect subjective cognitive impairment. SUMMARY: An optimal approach to dementia screening is to combine performance, informant, and self-reports, many of which can be completed in the waiting room or by non-physician staff prior to the start of the office visit. This diverse information may help inform the provider as to the presence or absence of a cognitive disorder, assist in staging the extent of the disorder, and help to develop a differential diagnosis and management plan.
