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

Introduction: Liver-metabolic stress and apolipoprotein E (APOE) ε4 are implicated in late-life cognitive vulnerability, yet how hepatic-metabolic indices relate to cognition and amyloid burden and whether these associations vary by APOE ε4 allele dose remains unclear. We examined liver-metabolic indices in relation to cognition and amyloid PET SUVR and tested effect modification by APOE ε4. Methods: We analyzed baseline data from the Dementia Platform Korea Trial-Ready Registry (DPK-TRR). Primary multivariable analyses used complete cases for outcomes and covariates ( Results: Higher TyG index and AST/ALT ratio were associated with lower MMSE scores (TyG: Conclusion: Routine liver-metabolic indices were associated with cognitive performance, while FIB-4 stage showed effect modification by APOE ε4 in relation to both cognition and amyloid PET SUVR. These findings support heterogeneity in liver-metabolic and genetic contributions to late-life cognitive vulnerability in a dementia trial-ready registry and motivate longitudinal studies to clarify temporal relationships.
