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

backgroundCommunity-dwelling residents at potential risk of dementia and their families have difficulty detecting symptoms of dementia during an outbreak of coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19). We explored the characteristics of behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) in community-dwelling persons at the first time of dementia diagnosis and identified their associated variables.

methodsA cross-sectional study using secondary data of dementia diagnosis tests was conducted. Data were reported by professional nurses and clinicians from 355 persons at the first time of dementia diagnosis in South Korea. BPSD and their associated variables were measured with the Neuropsychiatric Inventory, the Korean version of the Consortium to Establish a Registry for Alzheimer's Disease (CERAD-K) assessment handbook and electronic medical records.

resultsThe most common symptoms were apathy/indifference (72.1%), followed by irritability/lability (42.8%) and depression/dysphoria (42.0%). Hierarchical regression analyses showed that the strongest factor associated with BPSD was dementia type (β = -0.18,

conclusionProviding information based on the study findings to families who are caring for persons at potential risk of dementia, may be able to detect dementia symptoms early and manage appropriate care.
