Racial/ethnic differences in neuropsychiatric disturbances associated with incident dementia.
Article in Alzheimer's & dementia (Amsterdam, Netherlands). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
introductionNeuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) are nearly universal in dementia; some cross-sectional studies of NPS in dementia have found racial/ethnic differences, though it is unknown if NPS prevalence differs among racial/ethnic groups before and after dementia diagnosis.
methodsParticipants were followed annually at Alzheimer's Disease Centers and were assessed on the Neuropsychiatric Inventory-Questionnaire (NPI-Q) with at least one follow-up visit at which they were diagnosed with dementia. Descriptive statistics were generated by race/ethnicity. NPS were modeled over time as a function of race/ethnicity and with diagnosis date as the baseline.
resultsNPS were present in 95% in at least one time point. After adjusting for covariates, there were no statistically significant differences in NPI-Q total scores among racial/ethnic groups at the time of and after dementia diagnosis. DISCUSSION: Findings from our prospective cohort study suggest that when individuals are matched at the time of conversion to dementia, there are no racial/ethnic differences in NPS. Highlights: Neuropsychiatric symptoms of dementia are frequent and increase caregiver burden.Prior studies reported more neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) in Black compared to White individuals with dementia.National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center Black, White, and Hispanic participants did not differ in NPS at the time of dementia diagnosis.
