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 and Aims: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the main cause of dementia and over the 55 million people live with dementia worldwide. We aimed to establish the first database called the Iranian Alzheimer's Disease Registry to create a powerful source for future research in the country. In this report, the design and early results of the Iranian Alzheimer's Disease Registry will be described. Methods: We performed this multicenter investigation and patients' data including age, sex, educational level, disease status, Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), and Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) from 2018 to 2021 were collected, registered, and analyzed by GraphPad Prism software. Results: Totally 200 AD patients were registered in our database. 107 (54%) were women and age of 147 (74%) were over 65. The mean age for men and women was 76.20 ± 8.29 and 76.40 ± 8.83 years, respectively. 132 (66%) were married and 64 (32%) were illiterate. Also, 94 (47%) were in the moderate stage of disease, and 150 (75%) lived at home together with their families. The most frequent neurological comorbidity was psychosis ( Conclusion: Iranian Alzheimer's Disease Registry can provide epidemiological and clinical data to use for purposes such as enhancing the current AD management in clinical centers, filling the gaps in preventative care, and establishing effective monitoring and cure for the disease.
