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

Extant research suggest aging-related losses of different dopaminergic markers, including presynaptic dopamine transporters as well as post-synaptic DA receptors. Given the central role of DA in neurocognitive functions, maintenance of a healthy DA system may be a key to mitigate age-related cognitive decline. Mechanisms behind DA losses in aging are however largely uncharted. Past research documented an association between dopaminergic integrity and cerebrovascular health (via white matter lesion volumes). However, it remains unclear whether proximity to lesions affected the spatial patterns of age-related D1DR differences within the striatum, and whether such differences are related to mnemonic function. Here, a large cohort of middle-aged to older healthy participants (age = 40-80 years, n = 119, 50 % women) was assessed for D1-receptor (D1DR) availability with positron emission tomography using [
