The association of mild cognitive impairment with outpatient visits for hypertension.

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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionHypertension management is critically important to reduce the risk of conversion of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to dementia. The degree to which older adults with hypertension and MCI engage in outpatient ambulatory care for hypertension management is unclear.
methodsAmong older adults with hypertension in the Rush Alzheimer's Disease Center (RADC) cohorts (2011 to 2019), we used repeated measures negative binomial regression to evaluate the association between cognitive status (MCI vs no cognitive impairment [NCI]) and number of annual outpatient clinic visits for hypertension evaluation and management (E&M) (primary outcome).
resultsMCI (n = 1013 person-years) was associated with 8% fewer outpatient visits for hypertension versus older adults with NCI (n = 4373 person-years) (relative incidence ratio [RIR] 0.92, p < 0.01). DISCUSSION: Despite the known adverse cognitive effects of hypertension, older adults with MCI may be less likely to engage in outpatient hypertension management. HIGHLIGHTS: Fewer outpatient hypertension visits among adults with MCI versus NCI. Fewer primary care hypertension visits among adults with MCI versus without MCI. Need for interventions to engage adults with hypertension and MCI in outpatient care.
