Subjective cognitive decline among diverse older adults: Prevalence and associations with objective cognition.
Article in Alzheimer's & dementia : the journal of the Alzheimer's Association, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03688126 (U.S. Study to Protect Brain Health Through Lifestyle Intervention to Reduce Risk), which is not on this map. Cited by 9 papers.
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.

Abstract
introductionSubjective cognitive decline (SCD) may precede objective cognitive impairment. We examined prevalence, type of SCD, and associations with neuropsychological measures among diverse older adults.
methodsThe sample included older adults from three ethnoracial groups enrolled in the U.S. Study to Protect Brain Health Through Lifestyle Intervention to Reduce Risk (POINTER) trial. Everyday Cognition (ECog) measured SCD, and neuropsychological function was assessed using global memory, executive function, and processing speed composites.
resultsHispanic/Latinx participants were more likely to report SCD than non-Hispanic White (NHW) or Black participants, particularly executive function concerns. In the full sample, adjusting for demographics and depression, SCD ratings were associated with most neuropsychological outcomes. In analyses stratified by ethnoracial group, SCD ratings were associated with many of the neuropsychological domains in NHW participants and with processing speed among Black participants; no association was observed in Hispanic/Latinx participants. DISCUSSION: Prevalence, type of SCD, and associations with cognition varied by ethnoracial group. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT03688126 (ClinicalTrials.gov). HIGHLIGHTS: Hispanic/Latinx participants endorsed greater subjective cognitive decline (SCD) than other ethnoracial groups. Hispanic/Latinx participants were more likely to endorse executive function concerns. SCD was associated with several neuropsychological domains in non-Hispanic White participants. SCD was related to processing speed for Black participants. SCD was unrelated to objective cognitive performance in Hispanic/Latinx participants.
