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

There is a scarcity of evidence on the association between social connectedness and cognitive impairment in the rural Indian population. This cross-sectional study included rural Indians aged 45+ years (n = 5805) from an ongoing aging cohort, the CBR-SANSCOG study. Based on Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR), participants were classified into cognitively normal (CN, CDR = 0) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI, CDR = 0.5). Social networks, assessed across three dimensions (network diversity, size, and embeddedness), were compared between the two groups, adjusting for potential confounders. Individuals with MCI had significantly lower mean scores across all three social network dimensions than CN individuals.
