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

Objectives: To develop and validate the Anhui Environmental Exposure Questionnaire (AEEQ) and evaluate whether its composite score independently predicts incident cerebral haemorrhage in older adults. Methods: In a prospective cohort (January 2022-April 2024) from Hefei, we enrolled 460 participants aged 60-79 years with ≥5 years' residence and MMSE ≥24, excluding prior stroke/ICH/TBI, heavy-industry/mining workers, lifetime smoking ≥5 pack-years, and recent (≤6 months) antihypertensive changes. The 42-item AEEQ spans six domains. Content validity used Delphi procedures; construct validity used split-sample EFA/CFA; reliability used Cronbach's Results: Content validity was high (S-CVI/Ave 0.96). Factorability was adequate (KMO 0.91); EFA supported six factors (66.1% variance). CFA fit was excellent (χ Conclusion: The AEEQ reliably quantifies chronic environmental burden and adds independent, dose-responsive prognostic value for cerebral haemorrhage, supporting its use in community screening and targeted prevention.
