Albuminuria, cognition, and MRI biomarkers of cerebrovascular disease in American Indians of the Zuni Pueblo.

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.
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: Elevated urine albumin to creatinine ratio (UACR) is associated with cerebrovascular disease and cognitive impairment in older adults, though few studies have evaluated these relationships in midlife. This is particularly important to assess in American Indian populations, which are disproportionately impacted by diabetes and kidney disease. Additionally, evidence suggests that biomarkers may perform differently in underrepresented groups, thus, it is crucial to validate biomarkers in this unique population. Methods: Twenty-five participants from the Zuni Pueblo underwent neuropsychological assessment and an MRI that included fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) and diffusion imaging to calculate recently developed MRI markers of cerebrovascular small vessel disease (Peak width of Skeletonized Mean Diffusivity (PSMD), mean free-water fraction (mFW), white matter hyperintensity (WMH)). Results: Regression analyses indicated no significant associations between UACR, MRI biomarkers and cognitive outcomes. Analyses of covariance indicated that the Zuni Indian cohort exhibited reduced white matter damage relative to an existing cohort of older adults with vascular cognitive impairment when accounting for age, sex, and education. Slower processing speed was associated with greater white matter disease across all measures examined. Conclusions: Our pilot study validated the use of MRI biomarkers of cerebrovascular disease in this unique cohort of American Indians.
