[Vascular damage and cognitive-functional performance in a population with mild cognitive impairment].
Article in Revista de neurologia, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
introductionThere is evidence of predemential stages in Vascular Dementia (VD). Alzheimer Disease (AD) and VD share common risk factors and mechanisms. Vascular comorbility may present in 30-60% of patients with AD (mixed dementia). This work seeks to evaluate the impact of the severity of structural vascular damage according to the Fazekas classification (F) on functional cognitive performance in patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). PATIENTS AND
methodsA cross-sectional study of patients with MCI aged 65 years or older who had brain MRI was carried out. A neurocognitive battery and the EFE (Extended Functional Study) scale were administered to assess complex functionality. The patients were divided according to Fazekas classification: 0-1, 2 and 3. Bivariate analysis and multivariate analysis were performed.
results346 patients were included, age: 77.9 (SD 6.1). 66.2% presented F01, 22.8% F2 and 11% F3. Age and MMSE value were statistically significant. Multivariate analysis showed an independent association between vascular damage and complex functional alteration measured by EFE.
conclusionsIn conclusion, the progression of structural damage to a predominance of white matter would affect global cognitive performance and tasks related to executive function. The most significant finding was the correlation of the degree of vascular damage with the deficit of complex functionality measured with clinical tools that include technological resources. The clinical value of identifying individuals with prodromal DV is highlighted as it could optimize prevention measures.
