Association of antioxidants intake in diet and supplements with risk of Alzheimer's disease: a systematic review and dose-response meta-analysis of prospective cohort studies.

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
BACKGROUND &
aimsPrevious studies have shown that antioxidants may be associated with risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, some findings have failed to demonstrate a significant correlation. To rigorously evaluate this relationship, a comprehensive review and meta-analysis were conducted.
methodsAll relevant cohort studies reporting association between antioxidants intake (diet and/or supplement use) and AD risk were searched in 9 electronic databases and 4 registration platforms from their inception up to March 15, 2023. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using either a fixed-effects or random-effects model. Heterogeneity was assessed using I
resultsEleven cohort studies were included. The pooled HRs of AD were 0.90 (95% CI = 0.60-1.34) and 0.94 (95% CI = 0.75-1.17) for the dietary intake of vitamin E, 0.90 (95% CI = 0.76-1.07) for the vitamin E supplement use. The pooled HRs of AD were 0.84 (95% CI = 0.76-0.93) and 0.60 (95% CI = 0.35-1.02) for the dietary intake of vitamin C, 0.85 (95% CI = 0.72-1.00) for the vitamin C supplement use. The pooled HRs of AD were 1.02 (95% CI = 0.85-1.22) and 0.86 (95% CI = 0.68-1.07) for the dietary intake of beta-carotene. Notably, no significant dose-response relationship was observed.
conclusionsA high dietary intake of vitamin C (≥ 75 mg/d) was found to have a statistically significant impact on reducing the risk of AD. However, no significant association was observed between dietary intake of vitamin E or beta-carotene, or the use of vitamin E or vitamin C supplement use, and the risk of AD.
