Atherosclerosis and Hippocampal Volumes in Older Adults: The Role of Age and Blood Pressure.
Article in Journal of the American Heart Association, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
backgroundLower hippocampal volume is associated with late-life cognitive decline and is an important, but nonspecific marker for clinical Alzheimer's dementia. Cerebrovascular disease may also be associated with hippocampal volume. Here we study the role of intracranial large vessel disease (atherosclerosis) in association with hippocampal volume and the potential role of age, average late-life blood pressure across all visits, and other factors (sex, apolipoprotein ε4 [ METHODS AND
resultsData came from 765 community-based older people (91 years old on average at death; 72% women), from 2 ongoing clinical-pathologic cohort studies. Participants completed baseline assessment, annual standardized blood pressure measurements, vascular risk assessment for diabetes, and blood draws to determine
conclusionsAtherosclerosis severity is associated with lower hippocampal volume, independent of neurodegenerative and other cerebrovascular pathologies. Higher systolic blood pressures and advanced age attenuate associations.
