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 AND

objectivesBlood concentrations of hemostatic factors affect thrombosis and bleeding diathesis and may contribute to cognitive impairment through modifiable vascular pathologies. Whether hemostasis, assessed in middle age, is associated with late-life cognitive impairment remains largely unknown in a community-dwelling population.

methodsUsing data from 14,128 participants with cognitive function measurements in 1990-1992 from the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities study, we assessed the associations of hemostasis measures with 20-year changes in cognitive performance and incident dementia. Activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) and level of fibrinogen, von Willebrand factor (VWF), factor VIII, factor VII, factor XI, d-dimer, and soluble thrombomodulin were measured in 1987-1989 or 1993-1995. Hemostasis measures were categorized into quintiles, with the lowest quintile indicating low coagulability. Cognitive performance was characterized using a combined z-score from 3 tests (that is, delayed word recall test [DWRT], digit symbol substitution [DSST], and word fluency test [WFT]), assessed in 1990-1992, 1996-1998, and 2011-2013. Dementia was determined either from in-person evaluations or using dementia surveillance through 2017. Mixed-effects models and Cox proportional hazards models were used to assess cognitive trajectories and risk of dementia, respectively.

resultsAmong 12,765 participants with hemostasis measures in 1987-1989, who were aged 47-70 years at the first cognitive assessment, we observed significant trends of shorter aPTT ( DISCUSSION: Overall, our study found consistent trend associations of aPTT and factor VIII measured in midlife with cognitive decline and incident dementia over 20 years, likely driven by vascular pathologies.
