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

introductionThe causal association between pulmonary function and Alzheimer's disease (AD) remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate whether low pulmonary function has a causal relationship with the risk of AD.

methodsWe conducted prospective cohort and two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) studies. In the cohort study, 333,816 UK Biobank participants were eligible for analysis. Forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV

resultsOver a median follow-up of 12.8 years (10.3-15.0 years), 2275 incident cases of AD were identified in the cohort study. Compared to the highest quartile, the lowest quartile for pulmonary function exhibited a higher risk of incident AD, and hazard ratios (95% CI) were as follows after adjustment for risk factors: 1.81 (1.32-2.48; FEV

conclusionOur findings suggest the potential causal association between high FEV
