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

backgroundIt is believed that deposition of amyloid beta (Aβ) in the brain is the central pathological changes of Alzheimer's disease (AD), which triggers a series of pathological processes. However, the relationship between dyslipidemia and AD is uncertain. Considering the peripheral Aβ levels are related to brain Aβ deposition, we explore the relationships between blood lipids and plasma Aβ.

methodsParticipants who lived in the selected village of Xi'an for more than 3 years were enrolled, aged 40-85 years (n = 1282, 37.9% male). Fasting blood lipid, plasma Aβ levels, basic information and living habits were measured. Multiple linear regressions were used.

resultsIn total population, blood lipids were not associated with plasma Aβ. After stratified by blood pressure, serum total cholesterol (TC) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL-c) were positively associated with plasma Aβ

conclusionElevated plasma Aβ
