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

backgroundThe evidence on the association between cobalamin (Cbl) and aging or relevant outcomes is limited and controversial. We aimed to investigate the relationships between cobalamin intake- and function-related biomarkers and biological aging.

methodsThe study encompassed 22,812 participants aged 20 years and older from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. A panel of biomarkers or algorithms was used to assess biological aging, including Klemera-Doubal Age Acceleration (KDMAccel), Phenotypic age acceleration (PhenoAgeAccel), telomere length, α-Klotho, and PhenoAge advancement. Weighted generalized linear regression analysis was used to assess the associations between cobalamin-intake biomarkers (serum cobalamin, cobalamin intake from food, cobalamin supplement use, serum methylmalonic acid [MMA], and homocysteine [Hcy]) and function-related biomarkers (functional cobalamin deficiency and cobalamin insensitivity index).

resultsAmong the 22,812 individuals, the weighted mean (SE) age was 48.3 (0.2) years and 48.0% were males. Unexpectedly, serum and dietary cobalamin as well as serum MMA and Hcy levels were positively associated with most indicators of biological aging. Cobalamin sensitivity was assessed by the combination of binary Cbl

conclusionsDecreased cobalamin sensitivity but not cobalamin insufficiency might be associated with biological aging acceleration. Further studies would improve understanding of the underlying mechanisms between decreased cobalamin sensitivity and biological aging acceleration.
