The effect of sleep disorders on dementia risk in patients with traumatic brain injury: A large-scale cohort study.
Article in Alzheimer's & dementia (Amsterdam, Netherlands). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Introduction: We investigated the association between sleep disorders (SDs) and incident dementia in adults with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Methods: Adults with a TBI between 2003 and 2013 were followed until incident dementia. Sleep disorders at TBI were predictors in Cox regression models, controlling for other dementia risks. Results: Over 52 months, 4.6% of the 712,708 adults (59% male, median age 44, <1% with SD) developed dementia. An SD was associated with a 26% and a 23% of increased risk of dementia in male and female participants (hazard ratio [HR] 1.26, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.11-1.42 and HR 1.23, 95% CI 1.09-1.40, respectively). In male participants, SD was associated with a 93% increased risk of early-onset dementia (HR 1.93, 95% CI 1.29-2.87); this did not hold in female participants (HR 1.38, 95% CI 0.78-2.44). Discussion: In a province-wide cohort, SDs at TBI were independently associated with incident dementia. Clinical trials testing sex-specific SD care after TBI for dementia prevention are timely. Highlights: TBI and sleep disorders are linked to each other, and to dementia.It is unclear if sleep disorders pose a sex-specific dementia risk in brain injury.In this study, presence of a sleep disorder increased dementia risk in both sexes.The risk differed by type of sleep disorder, which differed between the sexes.Sleep disorder awareness and care in persons with brain injury is vital for dementia prevention.
