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

The Longitudinal Aging Study Amsterdam (LASA) is an ongoing prospective cohort study of older adults in the Netherlands, with data on multiple domains of functioning available over a period of more than 30 years of follow-up. The study started in 1992 with a nationally representative sample of older adults aged 55-84 years. Over the years, three refresher cohorts (two cohorts aged 55-64 years in 2002 and in 2012, and one cohort aged 60-86 years in 2024) were added. The main aim of LASA was to describe determinants, trajectories and consequences of (changes in) physical, cognitive, emotional and social functioning. LASA has multiple strengths, including its multidisciplinary character, the very long period of follow-up, and the cohort-sequential design which enables the study of longitudinal changes as well as historical time trends in functioning. So far, findings based on data from LASA have been reported in more than 800 scientific publications (see www.lasa-vu.nl ). In this article, we provide an update of the design and methods of LASA, including a description of several ancillary studies such as the Loneliness study and the COVID-19 study.
