Association of psychological stress and subjective cognitive decline.
Article in JAR life, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 3 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
Psychological stress is associated with several long-term consequences, including cognitive decline. Our study examined the relationship between psychological stress levels and subjective cognitive decline (SCD) using cross-sectional data from CDC's Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS 2020-2022) for participants aged 45 years and older. Among 881,479 participants, 7.5 % were African American, and 10.7 % reported high psychological stress, with 29 % experiencing SCD. High psychological stress had a 3-fold risk of SCD compared to low psychological stress (OR: 3.3; 95 % CI: 2.8, 4.0). A significant interaction between psychological stress and BMI was found in their association with SCD (p = 0.013). Individuals with high psychological stress and a BMI ≥ 25 had 4.3 times higher SCD risk (OR: 4.3; 95 % CI: 3.9, 4.7) compared to those with low psychological stress and a BMI < 25 (OR: 0.23, 95 % CI: 0.2, 0.3). These results highlight the importance of addressing stress to prevent cognitive decline.
