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

introductionThe availability of sociocultural and language-appropriate study materials and instruments is critical for the assessment of cognitive function in people from diverse backgrounds. This report describes the translations and cultural adaptations of study materials for the Asian Cohort for Alzheimer's Disease (ACAD) study.

methodsWe performed translations and cultural adaptations in accordance with the World Health Organization (WHO) translation guidelines to ensure reliable, complete, and culturally appropriate translations from English to the specified Asian languages.

resultsWe developed Asian language versions of the ACAD documents (consent, data collection packet, and community and social media outreach materials) reflecting the sociocultural backgrounds of the ACAD target population (i.e., older Asian adults) DISCUSSION: The multistep translation process accounting for distinctive Asian sociocultural and language backgrounds provides an important guideline for Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) researchers to promote health literacy and research with underrepresented Asian American and Canadian adults. HIGHLIGHTS: Asian American and Asian Canadian older adults are the fastest-growing populations. A lack of linguistically and culturally appropriate cognitive assessment tools creates barriers for quality healthcare and clinical research. We report the translations and cultural adaptations of the Asian Cohort for Alzheimer's Disease (ACAD) study materials into Chinese, Korean, and Vietnamese. This translation methodology should be extended to Asian Indians, Filipinos, and other Asian American or Asian Canadian populations.
