The Association Between the Prevalence, Medication Adherence and Control of Hypertension and the Prevalence of Mild Cognitive Impairment in Rural Northern China: A Cross-Sectional Study.

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
introductionHigh blood pressure is one of the main modifiable risk factors for dementia. However, it remains unclear whether lowering the blood pressure effectively prevents cognitive impairment. Our objective was to explore the association between the prevalence, medication adherence and control of hypertension and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) among elderly individuals in northern China.
methodsA two-stage clustering sampling method was used, and 9036 participants aged ≥65 years were included in the analysis. The Mini-Mental State Examination and activities of daily living were used to assess participants' cognitive function. Demographic characteristics (gender, age, marital status, education level, occupation), history and duration of hypertension, use of antihypertensive medications (AHMs) and its control effect were obtained.
resultsThe prevalence of MCI in all participants was 18.1%, and the prevalence of MCI was significantly higher in hypertensive subjects than in normotensive subjects (19.7% vs 16.2%,
conclusionThere is an association between the prevalence of hypertension, adherence to AHMs and MCI, suggesting that hypertensives should be screened for MCI to provide improved diagnoses and optimal therapeutics for cognitive decline prevention, especially in poor AHM adherence.
