The Educational Exposome: A life-course socioenvironmental framework for advancing Alzheimer's disease and ADRD research.
Article in Alzheimer's & dementia : the journal of the Alzheimer's Association, 2026. 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
introductionThe exposome encompasses all environmental exposures across the life course, yet educational environments, a critical socioenvironmental exposure, remain underexplored despite their role in cognitive aging and Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (AD/ADRD). Traditional measures, such as years of schooling, underestimate exposure heterogeneity and mechanisms influencing cognitive reserve.
methodsThe Educational Exposome Framework integrates psychosocial, resource-based, environmental, and structural domains of education: academic self-efficacy, home and community learning resources, and institutional learning contexts drawing on life-course, exposomic, and cognitive health research.
resultsThe framework conceptualizes education as a multidimensional, interacting system shaping cognitive development, stress biology, and neurodegeneration. Legacy and emerging datasets, including High School & Beyond, Health and Retirement Study, and Add Health, enable life-course reconstruction of educational exposures linked to midlife and later-life cognition. DISCUSSION: By capturing mechanistic pathways and leveraging linked data, the framework supports equity-focused dementia prevention and clarifies education's role in AD/ADRD risk.
