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

PurposeThis study examined relations between four late-life depression subgroups (recent, >2 years ago, chronic, no depression) and regional brain volumes using structural MRI data from the National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center (n=1,551).Data AnalysisMultiple linear regressions evaluated the effects of depression on 30 MRI biomarkers, while moderation analyses assessed how APOE ε4 and depression shape the connections between cognitive status and brain structure volumes.ResultsAfter adjusting for covariates and applying Hochberg's method, recent depression (< 2 years) was associated with reduced total cerebrum cranial volume and left frontal lobe cortical gray matter volume. Chronic depression correlated with larger right lateral ventricle volume.ConclusionThese findings suggest that recent depression is linked to brain atrophy across specific regions and ventricular enlargement. Future research should investigate age-related impacts on these associations and whether restoration of brain volume occurs after depressive symptoms subside.
