1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

introductionEarly detection of cognitive impairment enables interventions to slow cognitive decline. Existing neuropsychological paper-and-pencil tests may not adequately assess cognition in real-life environments. A fully-immersive and automated virtual reality (VR) system-Cognitive Assessment using VIrtual REality (CAVIRE)-was developed to assess all six cognitive domains. This case-control study aims to evaluate the ability of CAVIRE to differentiate cognitively-healthy individuals from those with cognitive impairment.

methodsOne hundred nine Asian individuals 65-84 years of age were recruited at a primary care setting in Singapore. Based on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), participants were grouped as either Cognitively Healthy (MoCA ≥26,

resultsCognitively-healthy participants achieved higher VR scores and required shorter completion time across all six cognitive domains (all DISCUSSION: The results demonstrated the potential of CAVIRE as a cognitive screening tool in primary care. Highlights: CAVIRE is a virtual reality (VR) system that assesses the six cognitive domains.CAVIRE can distinguish healthy individuals from individuals with cognitive impairment.It has potential as a cognitive screening tool for older people in primary care.
