Associations of Immigrant Generation with Level and Change in Self-Reported Everyday Cognition and Objectively Measured Cognition.
Article in Alzheimer disease and associated disorders. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionEvidence on cognitive aging differences across immigrant generations is limited.
methodsKaiser Healthy Aging and Different Life Experiences (KHANDLE) participants reported immigrant generation, categorized as adulthood immigrants (immigrated ≥18 y of age, n=294, 14.51%), childhood immigrants (immigrated <18, n=105, 5.18%), second-generation (US-born with ≥1 foreign-born parent, n=553, 27.29%), and third-generation or later (reference, n=1074, 53.01%). Verbal episodic memory (VEM), executive function (EF), and everyday cognition (12-item Ecog) were assessed up to 4 times. Level and change in cognition were modeled with linear mixed-effects regressions.
resultsCompared with third-generation participants, adulthood immigrants had worse VEM [(β = -0.19; 95% CI: -0.30, -0.08); EF (β = -0.61; -0.72, -0.50); and Ecog (β = 0.29; 0.19, 0.40)]; childhood immigrants had lower EF [β = -0.21 (-0.36, -0.05)]; and second-generation participants had worse VEM [β = -0.11 (-0.20, -0.02)], EF [β = -0.10 (-0.19, -0.01)], and Ecog [β = 0.10 (0.009, 0.18)]. Cognitive change did not differ by immigrant generation.
conclusionsIndividuals who immigrated in adulthood averaged worse cognitive scores and self-reported everyday cognition.
