The Effects of Cognitive Training in Healthy Community Residing Thai Elderly: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
Trial report in Psychology research and behavior management, 2022. 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
Purpose: Cognitive training intervention (CTI) is defined as any mechanism of action of a non-pharmacological procedure provided to improve cognitive function. CTI in healthy elderly has the potential to improve cognitive function; however, the effects of interactive computerized-CTI in old ages have been inconclusive. The present study aimed to determine the effects of low-technology CTI in community-based populations. Patients and Methods: The study was a 2-arm parallel single-blinded randomized controlled intervention trial. The main outcome measured global cognitive function utilizing the Thai Mental State Examination (TMSE); the minor outcomes were cognitive subdomains and psychosocial outcomes (ie, quality of life and depression). The primary endpoint assessed the treatment effect at the 12th week (T1), while the secondary endpoint evaluated the carry-over effect at the 24th week (T2). Results: Eighty-six eligible participants were recruited from a senior society on the edge of Bangkok. At baseline (T0), the mean age and TMSE score among CTI (n = 44) and wait-list (n = 42) groups were similar (age; 66.66 ± 5.52 and 67.52 ± 6.46; TMSE; 28.84 ± 1.38 and 28.83 ± 1.12, respectively). For the CTI group, the mean number of cognitive training sessions was 14.82 ± 7.62. By using intention-to-treat analysis at the primary endpoint, the mean difference score of TMSE in the CTI group was significantly higher than the wait-list group (∆TMSE Conclusion: CTI showed significant treatment effect for improvement in global cognitive function in healthy Thai elderly but did not demonstrate carry-over effect. This study provided preliminary evidence of the feasibility of implementing low-technology CTI in middle-income countries.
