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

ObjectiveAlthough the non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol-to-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (NHHR) has emerged as a novel indicator of lipid metabolism, its specific correlation with cognitive function remains unclear. This study aimed to comprehensively explore this association in an aging population.MethodsThis prospective cohort study comprised both cross-sectional (2015, n = 4605) and longitudinal (2018, n = 2362) analyses using data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study. Regression analysis was performed to assess the association of the NHHR with cognitive performance and cognitive impairment. Restricted cubic spline models explored potential nonlinear associations. A logistic regression model was employed in the longitudinal research to examine the correlation between baseline NHHR levels and cognitive impairment during follow-up.ResultsNHHR was positively correlated with episodic memory (regression coefficient = 0.23,
