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

Background: Cognitive decline is a growing public health concern. However, presently, only a few large-scale studies are available on the prevalence of cognitive decline worldwide, and the relationship between nutrition and cognitive decline remains unclear and requires further investigation, especially among Chinese centenarians and oldest-old adults. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of cognitive decline among Chinese centenarians and oldest-old adults, its associated factors, and explore a possible connection with nutrition, to provide new directions for the prevention of cognitive decline in Chinese centenarians and oldest-old adults. Methods: Based on the China Hainan Centenarian Cohort Study (CHCCS), a household survey was conducted among all the centenarians and oldest-old adults residing in 16 cities and counties of Hainan province from June 2014 to June 2016. This study included 946 centenarians and oldest-old adults (412 and 534, respectively). Cognitive function was measured using the mini-mental state examination (MMSE). Findings: The total prevalence of cognitive decline was 76·6% (725 participants). Centenarians had a significantly higher prevalence of cognitive decline compared to oldest-old adults [359 centenarians (87·1%) vs. 366 oldest-old adults (68·5%)]. Centenarians and oldest-old adults with cognitive decline had significantly lower prognostic nutritional index (PNI) and mini nutrition assessment-short form (MNA-SF) than those without cognitive decline ( Interpretation: Malnutrition was positively associated with cognitive decline among Chinese centenarians and oldest-old adults. It is therefore important for clinicians and community health workers to pay attention to malnutrition in these populations and provide supplemental nutrients to prevent cognitive decline.
