Assessing Risk Factors for Cognitive Decline Using Electronic Health Record Data: A Scoping Review.
Article in Research square, 2024. 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
Background: The data and information contained within electronic health records (EHR) provide a rich, diverse, longitudinal view of real-world patient histories, offering valuable opportunities to study antecedent risk factors for cognitive decline. However, the extent to which such records' data have been utilized to elucidate the risk factors of cognitive decline remains unclear. Methods: A scoping review was conducted following the PRISMA guideline, examining articles published between January 2010 and April 2023, from PubMed, Web of Science, and CINAHL. Inclusion criteria focused on studies using EHR to investigate risk factors for cognitive decline. Each article was screened by at least two reviewers. Data elements were manually extracted based on a predefined schema. The studied risk factors were classified into categories, and a research gap was identified. Results: From 1,593 articles identified, 80 were selected. The majority (87.5%) were retrospective cohort studies, with 66.3% using datasets of over 10,000 patients, predominantly from the US or UK. Analysis showed that 48.8% of studies addressed medical conditions, 31.3% focused on medical interventions, and 17.5% on lifestyle, socioeconomic status, and environmental factors. Most studies on medical conditions were linked to an increased risk of cognitive decline, whereas medical interventions addressing these conditions often reduced the risk. Conclusions: EHR data significantly enhanced our understanding of medical conditions, interventions, lifestyle, socioeconomic status, and environmental factors related to the risk of cognitive decline.
