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

backgroundDementia is a growing public health issue. Non-drug interventions targeting individuals before the onset of overt cognitive decline may be effective. Subjective cognitive decline (SCD) is present in > 50% of older adults and associated with progression to dementia. Here, we tested the compliance and effectiveness of a Multidomain Lifestyle Intervention Program using the mini-program, Cognitive Evergreenland, (MLIP-CE), based on the Health Action Process Approach model to support home-based intervention in older adults with SCD.

methodsCognitive Evergreenland was designed to improve cognitive reserve and maintain brain function in people at high risk of dementia and included: cognitive stimulation, cognitive training, health education, vascular risk monitoring, social support, and functional assessment, among other features. This was an exploratory trial designed to examine participant compliance with the mobile lifestyle intervention and its effectiveness, as well as changes in health-related indicators and cognitive function of older adults with SCD from baseline to 12 and 24 weeks post-intervention.

resultsThe retention rate for MLIP-CE was 90.2% (37/41). Mean participant age was 70.93 ± 6.91 years, 73.2% of participants were female, and mean Montreal Cognitive Assessment score was 24.51 ± 2.87. Throughout the 24 weeks of the prescribed intervention, app usage remained consistently high, with over 92% of participants using the mini-program at least once a week and successfully completing corresponding health management tasks. In terms of average usage, cognitive training emerged as the most frequently used functional module (95.73%), closely followed by health education (95.02%). The health behavior levels of older adults with SCD, measured in terms of ability, opportunity, and motivation, were significantly increased relative to baseline (p < 0.001). Regarding cognitive function, Mini-Mental State Examination scores were significantly improved post-intervention, with a moderate effect size (Hedges' g = 0.60).

conclusionsThese findings suggest that MLIP-CE, which was designed based on a theoretical framework, has potential for implementation, and support ongoing research into use of MLIP-CE for individuals at high risk of SCD or other dementia conditions.

trial registrationThe trial was prospectively registered at the Chinese Clinical Trials Registry with the registration number ChiCTR2200058665 on 13 April 2022.
