The Utility of Cognitive Screening in Asian Patients With Heart Failure: A Systematic Review.
Synthesis in Frontiers in psychiatry, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Background: The prevalence of undiagnosed cognitive impairment in patients with heart failure is alarmingly high in Asia. There is still no consensus on cognitive screening tools to detect cognitive impairment in the Asian heart failure population. The clinical implications based on our systematic review may help to improve cognitive screening practice for patients with heart failure in Asia. Methods: This review is registered in the PROSPERO (CRD42021264288). Using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) approach, we searched PubMed, Embase, the Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Scopus, the Web of Science, PsycINFO, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Wanfang Data in English and Chinese literatures concerning heart failure and cognitive impairment. Results: The search yielded 21 eligible studies. Only in five studies, cognitive brief tests, including the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), and the Mini-Cog, were used as cognitive screening tools for Asian patients with heart failure. In the rest 16 studies, brief cognitive tests were used as screening tools for global cognition. Only one study validated screening tests against a gold standard formal neuropsychological assessment test battery. Among these studies, patients with heart failure tended to perform worse than patients without heart failure. The presence of cognitive impairment in patients with heart failure is associated with poorer self-care, quality of life, and hospital readmission. Conclusion: Brief cognitive tests have been used in Asian patients with heart failure and these tests are frequently used as a measure of global cognitive function for cognitive screening. However, validating brief cognitive tests against a gold standard formal neuropsychological assessment in Asian patients with heart failure is lacking. Future studies need to address methodological issues to validate cognitive screening measures in a larger population of Asian patients with heart failure.
