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

Early detection of dementia as well as improvement in diagnosis coverage has been increasingly important. Previous studies involved extracting speech features during neuropsychological assessments by humans, such as medical pro- fessionals, and succeeded in detecting patients with dementia and mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Enabling such assessment in an automated fashion by using computer devices would extend the range of application. In this study, we developed a tablet-based application for neuropsychological assessments and collected speech data from 44 Japanese native speakers including healthy controls (HCs) and those with MCI and dementia. We first extracted acoustic and phonetic features and showed that several features exhibited significant difference between HC vs. MCI and HC vs. dementia. We then constructed classification models by using these features and demonstrated that these models could differentiate MCI and dementia from HC with up to 82.4 and 92.6% accuracy, respectively.
