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
More than half of the patients diagnosed with schizophrenia and a subgroup of patients diagnosed with bipolar disorder show impairment in neurocognitive and social cognitive performance. The degree of impairment varies from person to person. An improvement of cognitive impairment results in increased subjective quality of life and increased psychosocial functioning, to a much greater extent than successful treatment of other symptoms. Therefore, it is reasonable to not only recognize and bear decreased cognitive functioning in mind but also to offer specific treatment of impairments. The systematic review article in hand provides an overview of practice relevant treatment options in this respect. At present, cognitive remediation therapy shows the best treatment results, although only with moderate effect sizes. Physical activity can also be considered beneficial, even with the smaller number of studies available. Specific psychopharmacotherapy and non-invasive neurostimulation are still being assessed in clinical trials but show a promising perspective. Even though there are various beneficial treatment options to improve cognitive impairment potentially apparent in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder, future research will hopefully bring about even more effective interventions.
