Enlarged perivascular spaces and plasma Aβ42/Aβ40 ratio in older adults without dementia.
Article in Neurobiology of aging, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Dilation of perivascular spaces (PVS) in the brain may indicate poor fluid drainage due to the accumulation of perivascular cell debris, waste, and proteins, including amyloid-beta (Aβ). No prior study has assessed whether plasma Aβ levels are related to PVS in older adults without dementia. Independently living older adults (N = 56, mean age = 68.2 years; Standard deviation (SD) = 6.5; 30.4% male) free of dementia or clinical stroke were recruited from the community and underwent brain MRI and venipuncture. PVS were qualitatively scored and dichotomized to low PVS burden (scores 0-1,) or high PVS burden (score>1). Plasma was assayed using a Quanterix Simoa Kit to quantify Aβ42 and Aβ40 levels. A significant difference was observed in plasma Aβ42/Aβ40 ratio between low and high PVS burden, controlling for age (F[1, 53] = 5.59, p = 0.022, η
