Joint and Individual Mitochondrial DNA Variation and Cognitive Outcomes in Black and White Older Adults.
Article in The journals of gerontology. Series A, Biological sciences and medical sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundMitochondrial dysfunction manifests in neurodegenerative diseases and other age-associated disorders. In this study, we examined variation in inherited mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences in Black and White participants from 2 large aging studies to identify variants related to cognitive function.
methodsParticipants included self-reported Black and White adults aged ≥70 years in the Lifestyle Interventions and Independence for Elders (LIFE; N = 1 319) and Health Aging and Body Composition (Health ABC; N = 788) studies. Cognitive function was measured by the Digit-Symbol Substitution Test (DSST), and the Modified Mini-Mental State Examination (3MSE) at baseline and over follow-up in LIFE (3.6 years) and Health ABC (10 years). We examined the joint effects of multiple variants across 16 functional mitochondrial regions with cognitive function using a sequence kernel association test. Based on these results, we prioritized meta-analysis of common variants in Black and White participants using mixed effects models. A Bonferroni-adjusted p value of <.05 was considered statistically significant.
resultsJoint variation in subunits ND1, ND2, and ND5 of Complex I, 12S RNA, and hypervariable region (HVR) were significantly associated with DSST and 3MSE at baseline. In meta-analyses among Black participants, variant m.4216T>C, ND1 was associated with a faster decline in 3MSE, and variant m.462C>T in the HVR was associated with a slower decline in DSST. Variant m.5460G>C, ND2 was associated with slower and m.182C>T in the HVR was associated with faster decline in 3MSE in White participants.
conclusionsAmong Black and White adults, oxidative phosphorylation Complex I variants were associated with cognitive function.
