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

introductionLimited information is available regarding sex differences in the relationship of socioeconomic status and cognitive performance with Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) family history.

methodsLeveraging the UK Biobank (N = 448,100) and All of Us Research Program (N = 240,319), we conducted observational and genetically informed analyses to test the sex-specific associations of socioeconomic factors and cognitive performance with ADRD and its family history.

resultsObservational and genetically informed analyses highlighted that higher socioeconomic status and cognitive performance were associated with reduced ADRD and sibling-ADRD family history. Conversely, these were associated with increased parent-ADRD family history. Sex differences in these relationships were also identified. Additionally, although their sample size was limited, population minorities showed different patterns with respect to ADRD versus parent-ADRD family history. DISCUSSION: This study highlights sex differences in the misestimated associations of ADRD family history that appear to be related to socioeconomic factors and cognitive performance. HIGHLIGHTS: Alzheimer's disease family history is differently linked to socioeconomic factors. Observational and genetic analyses highlighted sex differences in these dynamics. Cause-effect relationships could contribute to biases in Alzheimer's disease assessment.
