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: The association of body mass index (BMI) with cognition and Alzheimer's disease (AD) biomarkers of the elderly remains inconclusive. Objective: To investigate the relationship between BMI and cognition as well as AD biomarkers in the elderly with different cognitive status. Methods: Participants with cognitively normal (CN) were included as the CN group. Participants with mild cognitive impairment and mild dementia were included as the cognitive impairment (CI) group. The relationship between BMI and AD biomarkers (cerebrospinal fluid Aβ Results: In the CI group, BMI was associated with MMSE (β= 0.03, Conclusion: The association of BMI with cognition and AD biomarkers varies across different cognitive status. In particular, a lower BMI was associated with worse cognition, higher Aβ burden, and lower HV in individuals with CI. Clinical practice should strengthen the monitoring and management of BMI in patients with AD.
