Digital cognitive training for functionality in mild cognitive impairment: a randomized controlled clinical trial.
Trial report in GeroScience, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Digital cognitive training may improve cognition in people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI); however, the effect on functionality remains poorly defined. The Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM) is a valid and consistent instrument for evaluating the performance of activities of daily living in this population. This study used the COPM to investigate the effects of digital cognitive training on functionality in individuals with MCI. We recruited participants aged 60 or older with MCI to a double-blinded, randomized, stepped wedge clinical trial of digital cognitive training compared to an active control group of commercial computer games. Participants were evaluated for functionality and cognition before and after 10 h of intervention. Ten hours of digital cognitive training improved functionality, measured by COPM performance, compared to the active control group. Learning over trials also improved significantly after 10 h of digital cognitive training, as compared to the active control group. Ten hours of digital cognitive training improved functionality in MCI. More sensitive tools, such as COPM, should be used to evaluate the effect of therapeutic interventions for functionality in MCI.
