Social resources and emotional well-being in older adults with and without mild cognitive impairment.
Observational study in Aging & mental health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectivesAcross adulthood close social partners are increasingly prioritized and socioemotional skills typically improve. We investigate whether age-related benefits in emotional well-being and social resources emerge in both cognitively normal (CN) older adults and older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and whether associations between well-being and social resources vary between these older groups and young adults.
methodYoung adults (aged 21-34,
resultsOlder adults with MCI had higher well-being than young adults, but lower well-being than CN older adults. Young adults generally had higher social engagement than both older adult groups and lower social quality than CN older adults. Social engagement and quality were both positively associated with well-being, especially among CN older adults.
conclusionFindings suggest older adults with MCI somewhat maintain age-related advantages in emotional well-being, but not social functioning. Older adults with MCI (and young adults) may also not be as effective in leveraging social resources to support their well-being.
