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

Objective: Although multiple pieces of evidence have suggested that there are different mechanisms in periventricular white matter hyperintensities (PWMHs) and deep white matter hyperintensities (DWMHs), the exact mechanism remains uncertain. Methods: We reviewed clinical and imaging data of old participants from a local She Ethnic group. We assessed the cerebral blood flow of white matter (WM-CBF) on arterial spin-labeling, deep medullary veins (DMVs) visual score on susceptibility-weighted imaging, and index for diffusion tensor image analysis along the perivascular space (ALPS index), indicating glymphatic function on diffusion tensor imaging. Furthermore, we investigated their relationships with volumes of PWMHs and DWMHs. Results: A total of 152 subjects were included, with an average age of 63 ± 8 years old. We found that higher age and history of hypertension were independently related to higher volumes of both PWMHs and DWMHs (all Conclusions: Our study indicated that there were different mechanisms in PWMHs and DWMHs. PWMHs were mainly attributed to the damage of veins due to the dysfunction of the glymphatic pathway, while DWMHs could be affected by both ischemia-hypoperfusion and dysfunction of the glymphatic pathway. Advances in knowledge: The relationship between glymphatic dysfunction and PWMHs might be accounted for by the indirect pathway
