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

introductionSleep problems are early features of Alzheimer's disease (AD). We examined domain-specific associations of subjective sleep with cognition, brain networks, and AD biomarkers in non-demented older adults.

methodsWe studied 849 non-demented participants from the Chinese Preclinical Alzheimer's Disease Study (CPAS) cohort. Subjective sleep dimensions were assessed, along with cognition, resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging, [ DISCUSSION: Adequacy- and function-related sleep dimensions aligned with AD-related decline, whereas quantity- and fragmentation-related dimensions reflected network changes or subjective-objective discrepancies, suggesting distinct biological underpinnings of different sleep problems. HIGHLIGHTS: Different subjective sleep dimensions show distinct links with cognition and AD biomarkers. Sleep quality, efficiency, and daytime dysfunction relate to cognition, networks, and Aβ/tau. Shorter sleep and greater fragmentation show paradoxical associations with plasma biomarkers. Sleep alterations may involve heterogeneous biological pathways in the AD continuum. Multidimensional sleep assessment may improve early detection and risk stratification in AD.
