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

India's aging population faces escalating cognitive decline and neuropsychiatric challenges. This cross-sectional study examined relationships between geriatric depression, neuropsychiatric symptoms and cognitive performance among 1,013 community-dwelling elderly participants (≥60 years) in Gorakhpur using the ICMR-MUDRA Toolbox. Multistage random sampling was employed. Depression was assessed using GDS-30, and neuropsychiatric symptoms were assessed using NPI-Brief. It was observed that geriatric depression was present in 63.3% of participants, while neuropsychiatric symptoms affected 78.5%, predominantly agitation (15%) and irritability (12%). Cognitive performance declined significantly across depression severity in attention, executive function, memory, language and visuospatial domains (
