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

Background: Previous research has primarily examined individual factors of cardiovascular health (CVH) and disease in PD and dementia, but no study has examined CVH measures with PD, dementia, and mortality simultaneously while accounting for potentially confounding factors. Objectives: To examine the relationship between CVH, all-cause dementia, Parkinson's disease (PD), and mortality, focusing on associations and health transitions from a large population-based study. Methods: We investigated these relationships using Cox Proportional Hazards and multistate parametric models with Weibull regression from the UK Biobank data (n = 269,816, Age = 50 + y individuals, ≤15y follow-up, 2006-2021). Results: Full Cox models found poor CVH (measured with standardized reverse-coded Life's Essential 8 total score, LE8 Conclusions: Poor CVH is directly associated with an increased risk of mortality from PD, transition into Dementia, and all-cause mortality without dementia or PD occurrence. Clinicians should aggressively screen for and manage CVH risk measures to reduce the risk of poor cognitive health outcomes.
