[Prevention of cognitive decline and dementia by treatment of risk factors].
Review in Der Nervenarzt, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundIn Germany, approximately 1.6 million people are currently suffering from dementia. The prevalence of the disease is expected to double by 2060. To date there is no treatment that can prevent the onset of dementia. For this reason, the development of prevention strategies for cognitive decline and dementia is crucial.
objectivePresentation of studies on dementia prevention by treatment of arterial hypertension. Overview of current multidomain interventional studies on dementia prevention. MATERIAL AND
methodsNarrative review.
resultsWhereas in three previous randomized controlled trials on antihypertensive treatment a reduction of dementia risk could not be found, the recent SPRINT-MIND study demonstrated a reduced risk of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and in the trend for dementia by intensified hypotensive treatment. Multidomain interventional studies suggest preventive effects, particularly in specific risk groups and also highlight the challenge of adherence to lifestyle modifications.
conclusionThe treatment of modifiable risk factors can have a preventive effects on cognitive decline and dementia. More research is needed to identify subgroups with the greatest likelihood of benefits.
