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

aimsObese type 2 diabetes and traumatic brain injury are associated with persistent peripheral and neuro-inflammation, respectively. We tested whether adult type 2 diabetes increased the hazard rate for neurodegeneration complications following traumatic brain injury.

methodsRetrospective chart review of patients treated at the Veterans Affairs New Jersey Healthcare System between 2016-2019 and having a diagnosis of prior traumatic brain injury was performed in adult veterans, age 50 years or older. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was used to identify risk factors predictive of an increased risk of neurodegeneration, i.e. worsening major depression, dementia or Parkinson's disease following traumatic brain injury.

resultsType 2 diabetes predicted a nearly three-fold increased hazard ratio (HR = 2.95, 95% CI 1.15-7.56, P =0.02) for the occurrence of worsening major depression, dementia or Parkinson's disease in eighty adults age 50 years or older who had experienced prior traumatic brain injury. After adjusting for other covariates, hypertension (HR= 4.15, 95% CI 1.21-14.29, P =0.02) was significant and body mass index (HR=1.14, 95% CI 0.99-1.30; P=0.06) modestly significant predictors of the risk for the time to first occurrence of the composite neurodegenerative outcome.

conclusionType 2 diabetes, hypertension and higher body mass index increase the hazard for the occurrence of worsening depression, Parkinson's disease and dementia following traumatic brain injury in middle-aged and older adults.
