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: Blood brain barrier (BBB) breakdown is considered a potential mechanism of dementia. The Alzheimer's disease (AD) biomarkers and vascular factors are also associated with BBB permeability. Objective: In the present study, the combination effects of neuropathological biomarkers of AD and chronic vascular risk factors for BBB were investigated. Methods: The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)/serum albumin ratio (Qalb), an indicator of BBB permeability, was measured in a total of 95 hospitalized dementia patients. The demographics, clinical information, and laboratory tests were collected from the inpatient records. The CSF neuropathological biomarkers of AD and apolipoprotein E (APOE) genotype were also collected. The mediation analysis model was used to calculate the associations among neuropathological biomarkers of AD (mediator), the Qalb, and chronic vascular risk factors. Results: Three types of dementia, AD ( Conclusion: Glucose exposure can directly or indirectly affect BBB integrity through Aβ and tau, indicating glucose affects BBB breakdown and glucose stability plays an important role in dementia protection and management.
