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.

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.

Abstract

introductionUS Latinos face an increased prevalence of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Identifying factors contributing to Latinos' perceived vulnerability to AD can help clinicians and researchers target disparities in AD healthcare and education for a minority population that is disproportionately impacted by AD. By better understanding perceived vulnerability, which can influence health and help-seeking behaviors, healthcare providers can more effectively aid Latino communities.

methodsWe conducted semi-structured interviews in English or Spanish with 216 Latino participants (average age 53 years) living in northern Manhattan to assess perceived vulnerability of AD. Interviews were 70-95 min and were transcribed, coded, and thematically analyzed across the "perceived vulnerability" code.

resultsFactors influencing perceived vulnerability to AD among Latinos were organized into three key categories: predisposing factors, psychosocial factors, and self-perceptions. Family history and perceptions of aging were common reasons that participants believed they were likely or unlikely to develop AD. DISCUSSION: With a culture-specific analysis of factors influencing perceived vulnerability to AD among Latinos, clinicians can allay unnecessary concerns and researchers can disseminate more accurate information and health recommendations across Latino populations.
