New cases of dementia are rising in elderly populations in Wales, UK.
Article in Journal of the neurological sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Dementia is one of the most common diseases in elderly populations, and older populations are one of the fastest growing groups globally. Consequently, the number of people developing and living with dementia is likely to grow. Using longitudinal medical records from Wales, UK between 1999 and 2018, diagnoses of overall dementia and common subtypes were combined with demographic data to assess numbers of new and existing cases per year. Data extraction resulted in 161,186 diagnoses from 116,645 individuals. Mean age at diagnosis of dementia increased over this period, resulting in fewer younger people with the disease. New cases of dementia have risen, as has the number of people living with dementia. Individuals with dementia are also living longer, even accounting for their older age. This may present a challenge for healthcare systems as the number of elderly people living with dementia is expected to continue to grow.
