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

introductionThe aim of this study was to assess the association of peripheral neuropathy (PN) as defined by monofilament insensitivity with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and dementia in older adults with and without diabetes.

methodsWe conducted a cross-sectional analysis of 3,362 Black and White participants in the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Neurocognitive Study (ARIC-NCS) who underwent monofilament testing at visit 6 (2016-2017, age 71-94 years). Participants' cognitive status was classified by an adjudication committee as cognitively normal, MCI, or dementia after completing a comprehensive battery of neurocognitive assessments. We used logistic regression to evaluate the association of PN with MCI or dementia overall and stratified by diabetes status after adjusting for traditional dementia risk factors. We also compared age-adjusted brain MRI measures among a subset (N = 1,095) of participants with versus without PN.

resultsOverall, the prevalence of MCI (21.9% vs. 16.7%) and dementia (7.8% vs. 3.9%) were higher among participants with versus without PN (both p < 0.05). After adjustment, PN was positively associated with MCI or dementia in the overall study population (OR 1.45, 95% CI 1.23, 1.73). Results were similar by diabetes status (diabetes: OR 1.38, 95% CI 1.03-1.87; no diabetes: OR 1.48, 95% CI 1.20-1.83; p-for-interaction = 0.46). Age-adjusted total and lobar brain volumes were significantly lower in participants with versus without PN (both, p < 0.05). DISCUSSION/

conclusionsPN as defined by monofilament insensitivity was associated with cognitive status independent of vascular risk factors and regardless of diabetes status. Our findings support a connection between PN and cognitive impairment, even in the absence of diabetes.
