A scoping review of different monitoring-technology devices in caring for older adults with cognitive impairment.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Various monitoring technologies are being developed to prevent potential complications among older adults with cognitive impairment and improve their cognitive function. This scoping review identified gaps in the development of monitoring-technology devices for cognitive health status and highlights areas that require further inquiry. This study used the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) and the PRISMA extension for the checklist for scoping reviews using the eligibility criteria recommended by Population, Concept, and Context (PCC) framework. The study population included adults aged 65 years and above, while the concept and context are monitoring-technology devices utilized in detecting and caring for an older adult with cognitive impairment. Three electronic databases (Medline, Scopus, and Web of Science) were searched, and a total of 21 articles met the selection criteria. Several innovative technology-based devices for screening, assessing, detecting, and monitoring the interventions for older adult cognitive impairment and for family caregivers to ensure the continuity of care were established. Monitoring devices are useful in promoting older adult safety, improving their quality of life by enabling them to live independently for a longer period, and improving their mental wellbeing to help reduce the burden on caregivers by providing them with information concerning the activities of older adults. Moreover, studies have shown that older adults and their caregivers can learn to use these devices effectively and comfortably with proper education and training. The results of this study provide crucial insights into innovative technologies that can be used to assess cognitive health among older adults, which could substantially improve their mental health, and this baseline information can be used for supporting public health policy and enhancing their quality of life.
