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

The number of people suffering from dementia in the world is progressively increasing due to the expansion of the geriatric population in which this clinical condition is more frequent. The appearance of a variable degree of cognitive decline up to full-blown dementia does not, however, represent the inevitable fate of those who age, as the studies conducted in the centenarians clearly indicate. Indeed, the age-specific incidence of dementia has progressively decreased in many geographical areas, probably due to an improvement in lifestyles and health care. In fact, a growing number of scientific evidence shows how chronic exposure over the course of life, starting from young adulthood, to various risk factors-arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus, obesity, tobacco smoke, sleep disorders-contribute significantly to the development of cognitive decline and dementia in the course of senescence. These risk factors, in fact, can trigger and amplify the various neuropathological mechanisms underlying the development of decline, progressively reducing the functional reserve of the brain. Although definitive evidence deriving from
