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

Background: Cognitive impairment has a substantial vascular etiology. Higher lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is associated with cardiovascular disease risk, but its association with cognitive function is uncertain. We hypothesized that Lp(a) is a risk factor for cognitive impairment, a relationship that would be modified by race and sex. Objectives: To study the association of Lp(a) with cognitive impairment in a biracial cohort. Methods: The Reasons for Geographic and Racial Differences in Stroke (REGARDS) study recruited 30,239 Black and White Americans aged >45 years from 2003 to 2007. After 3.4 years, among participants with normal baseline cognition, baseline Lp(a) was measured in 434 cases of incident cognitive impairment and 557 controls. Cognitive impairment was defined as scores below the sixth percentile based on age, sex, race, and education norms on 2 or 3 components of a 3-test battery administered every 2 years. Results: Median Lp(a) was higher in Black than in White individuals. Among Black participants, the adjusted odds ratio (OR) of cognitive impairment per SD higher increment Lp(a) was 1.39 (95% CI: 1.05, 1.84). The OR in White participants was 1.03 (95% CI: 0.87, 1.21; Conclusion: Higher Lp(a) was associated with increased risk of cognitive impairment in Black but not White individuals. Future studies should evaluate the biological and social mechanisms through which race and Lp(a) interact to increase risk of cognitive impairment.
