Digital Neuropsychological Assessment of Cognitive Functions in Patients with Epilepsy.

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
Introduction: Cognitive impairment often occurs secondary to epilepsy. This study aims to evaluate the cognitive functions of patients with idiopathic generalized epilepsy (IGE) by using the digital neuropsychological assessment. Methods: Seventy-nine patients diagnosed with IGE in the last 10 years in our clinic, who completed at least eight years of education were recruited. Participants who met the criteria were 36 individuals with IGE syndrome as well as 36 healthy individuals between the ages of 18-48. All volunteer participants were administered the standardized mini mental test (SMMT) and the Beck depression scale (BDS). For the neurocognitive assessment, participants completed five tasks in TestMyBrain digital neuropsychology test battery (TMB) which are TMB digit span, TMB choice reaction time test, TMB visual paired associates test, TMB matrix reasoning, and TMB digit symbol matching assessing a variety of cognitive domains. Results: IGE patients showed lower cognitive performance in attention, short-term memory, working memory, visual memory, episodic memory, cognitive processing speed, response selection/inhibition, fluid cognitive ability, and perceptual reasoning domains. The results show that IGE patients have cognitive dysfunction in many cognitive domains. Conclusion: IGE patients performed significantly worse outcomes in some tests of the TMB. In this study, it is aimed to emphasize the necessity of evaluating the cognitive aspects of epilepsy patients, which will be of great importance in their functionality, in addition to providing symptomatic treatment in order to control their seizures.
