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

introductionWe evaluated the relationship between baseline enlarged perivascular space (ePVS) burden and later cognitive decline.

methods83 community-dwelling, older adults (aged 56-86) completed three annual cognitive assessments that included the Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR®) Dementia Staging Instrument Sum of Boxes (CDR-SB) and composite measures of executive function and episodic memory. An MRI scan at baseline was used to count ePVS in the basal ganglia and centrum semiovale. Mixed effects models were run with ePVS as the predictor variable and cognitive measures as the dependent variable. Covariates included age, sex, education, cerebral small vessel disease (cSVD) risk factors, and cSVD neuroimaging biomarkers.

resultsAt baseline, high basal ganglia ePVS counts were associated with lower executive function scores and episodic memory scores. Moreover, baseline basal ganglia ePVS predicted worse longitudinal CDR-SB scores over the study period. DISCUSSION: Basal ganglia ePVS burden is a promising biomarker for cSVD-related cognitive and functional decline.
