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

Mild cognitive impairment, a precursor of Alzheimer's disease, poses a significant public health challenge among older adults, particularly those who have experienced forced displacement. Studies indicate that socioeconomic increases can offer protective effects against cognitive impairment; however, the pattern of marginalization-related diminished returns (MDR) demonstrates that these benefits are not universal, with marginalized groups experiencing diminished health returns from socioeconomic advancements. This study examined the relationship between socioeconomic status (SES)-measured by poverty level and educational attainment-and self-reported cognitive difficulty (CD) in a nationally representative sample of older adult refugees, further nuanced by focusing on the moderating effect of Bhutanese ethnicity, chosen for their unique migration and resettlement experiences. Utilizing the 2021 Public Use Microdata Samples of the American Community Survey 5-year estimates and official refugee counts by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, this study analyzed a sample of 5,666 resettled refugees. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that high school completion was associated with a 48% decrease in the odds of CD among refugees (AOR = 0.52,
