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

introductionPeople with subjective cognitive decline (SCD) and cognitive impairment, no dementia (CIND) have higher risks of dementia. This study investigated whether fixel-based and free-water (FW) metrics, which examine the white matter (WM) structure, differ in SCD and CIND and their relationships with cognition.

methodsWe analyzed cross-sectional data from 247 participants (median age = 63), separated into three groups: healthy controls (HC), SCD, and CIND.

resultsHC had lower fiber bundle cross-section (FbC) in the splenium than SCD. HC had higher FbC in the left cerebellum and higher fiber density in the corpus callosum than CIND, and SCD had higher FbC in the right cerebellum than CIND. CIND had higher FW in the temporal lobe and basal ganglia than HC and exhibited less extensive FW differences with SCD. Fixel-based and FW metrics associated positively and negatively with cognition, respectively. DISCUSSION: Fixel-based metrics have potential to detect WM changes associated with SCD.
