Is the Korean Mini-Mental State Examination (K-MMSE) Useful in Evaluating the Cognitive Function of Brain Injury Patients?: Through Correlation Analysis With Computerized Neurocognitive Test (CNT).
Article in Brain & NeuroRehabilitation, 2024. 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
Patients with brain injury often experience accompanying disabilities that can make it challenging for them to use tools or perform complex tests. Therefore, Korean Mini-Mental State Examination (K-MMSE) is widely used in clinical practice as an alternative to the computerized neurocognitive test (CNT) or Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale tests to assess cognitive function in these individuals. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between the K-MMSE and CNT in brain injury patients to evaluate the and clinical usefulness of K-MMSE. A total of 120 patients were assessed using both tests, and a significant correlation was observed between the total scores of K-MMSE and CNT. The orientation component of K-MMSE was significantly correlated with CNT components, indicating that individuals who perform well on orientation tasks are likely to have better cognitive abilities overall. While K-MMSE has limitations in evaluating specific cognitive domains, it is a useful tool in clinical practice for evaluating cognitive impairment, especially in patients who have difficulty using more complex cognitive tests.
