Association between the Use of Dipeptidyl Peptidase 4 Inhibitors and the Risk of Dementia among Patients with Type 2 Diabetes in Taiwan.

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
STUDY
objectivesDiabetes mellitus per se and its related therapy have been frequently associated with an increased risk of developing dementia. However, studies that explored the risk of dementia from the use of the novel oral antidiabetic medication dipeptidyl peptidase 4 inhibitor (DPP-4i) have been limited, especially in Asian populations. The present study aimed to determine the effect of DPP-4i on the subsequent risk of dementia among patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) in Taiwan.
methodsThis study utilized data from the Longitudinal Health Insurance Database between 2008 and 2015. We enrolled 2903 patients aged ≥50 years, who were on DPP-4i for a diagnosis of T2D and had no dementia. A total of 11,612 subjects were included and compared with a propensity score-matched control group who did not use DPP-4i (non-DPP-4i group). Survival analysis was performed to estimate and compare the risk of dementia-including Alzheimer's disease, vascular dementia, and other dementia types-between the two groups.
