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

objectiveThis study compared the effects of sex and education on existing neuropsychological assessments used in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and related dementias, as well as a novel performance-based test of cognition and daily functioning.

methodsOne hundred seventy-one participants (46 AD, 53 amnestic mild cognitive impairment, and 72 cognitively unimpaired) completed a neuropsychological test battery and a novel performance-based test involving moving objects in a sequence with the nondominant hand. The effects of sex and education on all tests were evaluated using multivariable regression, controlling for age and group (defined based on cognitive and functional abilities according to the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative criteria).

resultsAll tests, except for the novel performance-based test and Trail Making Test, were significantly affected by sex and/or education.

conclusionsThe novel performance-based test may be less affected by demographic variables compared to traditional neuropsychological assessments used in AD and related dementias, rendering it more broadly applicable than other measures.
