Association between vision impairment and cognitive decline in older adults with stroke: Health and Retirement Study.
Article in Aging clinical and experimental research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Stroke survivors may experience multiple residual symptoms post-stroke, including vision impairment (VI) and cognitive decline. Prior studies have shown that VI is associated with cognitive decline, but have not evaluated the contribution of VI to post-stroke cognitive changes. We used data from four waves (2010-2016) of the Health and Retirement Study to investigate the cognitive trajectories of stroke survivors with and without VI. Vision (excellent-very good[ref], good, fair-poor) and stroke diagnosis were self-reported. Cognition was defined using the Telephone Interview for Cognitive Status. Regression was used to model the association between vision and change in cognitive function, adjusting for confounders. The final sample included 1,439 stroke survivors and the average follow-up time was 4.1 years. Fair-poor overall (B = -1.30, p < 0.01), near (B = -1.53, p < 0.001), and distance (B = -1.27, p < 0.001) vision were associated with significantly lower baseline cognitive function. VI was not associated with the rate of cognitive decline. Future research should determine whether specific types of VI potentiate the risk of cognitive impairment and dementia in stroke survivors.
