Sex Differences in the Severity and Progression of Neuropsychiatric Symptoms Across Different Dementia Types.
Article in Neurology. Clinical practice, 2024. 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
Background and Objectives: Dementia presents not only differing neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) across Alzheimer disease (AD), frontotemporal dementia (FTD), dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) but also subjective cognitive decline (SCD). This study examined sex-based variations in NPS severity and progression across these conditions. Methods: We performed a longitudinal cohort study including 1,068 participants. Hierarchical generalized linear mixed models were used to model NPS as a function of disease severity and biological sex at birth. Results: Female participants with AD exhibited NPS more frequently than male participants. In FTD, female participants had more frequent delusions, hallucinations, and depression/dysphoria, while male participants had higher instances of agitation/aggression, apathy, disinhibition, and irritability/lability. In DLB, male participants showed higher instances of depression, and female participants more frequently experienced anxiety. In SCD, female participants showed higher nighttime behaviors. The trajectory of NPS significantly differed between sexes. Discussion: These findings highlight sex-specific NPS impact in different neurodegenerative conditions.
