Estimation of the Cognitive Functioning of the Elderly by AI Agents: A Comparative Analysis of the Effects of the Psychological Burden of Intervention.

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
In recent years, an increasing number of studies have begun to use conversational data in spontaneous speech to estimate cognitive function in older people. The targets of spontaneous speech with older people used to be physicians and licensed psychologists, but it is now possible to have conversations with fully automatic AI agents. However, it has not yet been clarified what difference there is in conversational communication with older people when the examiner is a human or an AI agent. This study explored the psychological burden experienced by elderly participants during cognitive function assessments, comparing interactions with human and AI conversational partners. Thirty-four participants, averaging 78.71 years of age, were evaluated using the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI). The objective was to assess the psychological impact of different conversational formats on the participants. The results indicated that the mental strain, as measured by VAS and STAI scores, was significantly higher during the MMSE sessions compared to other conversational interactions (
