Potential biomarkers for cerebral small vessel disease with cognitive impairment: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Review in Frontiers in aging neuroscience, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) is a common factor in age-related diseases such as stroke and dementia, and about half of dementia patients worldwide are caused by CSVD. CSVD-related cognitive impairment (CSVD-CI) affects more and more elderly people, resulting in economic losses and burdens on families and society. In recent years, circulating biomarkers have made breakthroughs and played an increasingly important role in the diagnosis, progression, and prognosis of CSVD-associated cognitive impairment, and are expected to be applied to the early clinical detection, diagnosis, and treatment of patients with cerebral small vessel disease. Through a systematic review and meta-analysis, this study aimed to assess the relationship between circulating factors and cognitive impairment associated with cerebral small vessel disease, especially the possibility of becoming the potential biomarkers for diagnosis. Articles published before November 2023 were searched in four databases, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library, to identify all relevant studies reporting circulating markers in patients with CSVD. Twenty-nine articles out of 2,911 were finalized for this study. We meta-analyzed 2 or more articles that were jointly considered to be circulating biomarkers of CSVD-CI and summarized a total of 4 possible biomarkers: homocysteine (Hcy), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2), and neurofilament protein light chain (NfL). The results revealed that patients in the CSVD-related cognitive impairment group had significantly higher levels of Hcy and hs-CRP than those in the CSVD-without cognitive impairment group, whereas there was no statistically significant difference in Lp-PLA2 and NfL between the two groups. Therefore, Hcy, hs-CRP may be considered circulating markers of cognitive impairment associated with cerebral small vessel disease.
