Western Mediterranean diet predicts 9-year changes in episodic memory in an adult lifespan sample of Americans.
Article in Journal of Alzheimer's disease : JAD, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
BackgroundThe Mediterranean Diet (MD) is well-studied for slowing cognitive declines. Few studies have examined how a Western MD (wMD) may impact cognitive function.ObjectiveThis study examined whether a wMD predicted less cognitive decline over 9 years in a national sample of American adults. The measures were episodic memory (EM) and executive functioning (EF) at baseline and 9 years follow-up.MethodsThis is a secondary analysis of the Midlife in the United States Study (MIDUS), using a longitudinal cohort design with cross-sectional dietary data. Participants in this study had data from Waves 2 and 3 of MIDUS (
