[Psychotherapy with mild cognitive impairment and dementia].
Review in Der Nervenarzt, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundDespite evidence for psychotherapy (PT) in elderly patients, it is not standard care in patients with mild cognitive impairment and dementia. Although neuropsychiatric symptoms are frequent in these patients, there is a lack of studies investigating the importance and efficiency of PT.
objectiveCan patients with mild cognitive impairment and dementia benefit from PT? If so, which modifications of therapeutic strategies are necessary for treating elderly patients with mild cognitive impairments? MATERIAL AND
methodsEvaluation of empirical evidence on the efficiency of PT for patients with mild cognitive impairment and dementia. Presentation of interventions and modifications of therapeutic strategies.
resultsEmpirical evidence points towards beneficial effects of PT on depressive symptoms and quality of life. The treatment of anxiety disorders has so far been broadly neglected. Modifications of therapeutic strategies include simplification of content, repetitions, implementation of external memory aids and inclusion of caregivers into therapeutic process.
conclusionPsychotherapy can be effective in patients with mild cognitive impairment and early stages of dementia. When practicing PT, an adaptation of therapeutic strategies is necessary. Nevertheless, there is a need for further studies investigating the benefits and implementation of PT into standard care, especially as pharmacological interventions are very limited in their efficiency and tolerability in this patient population.
