Slowed Driving Reaction Time in Preclinical Alzheimer's Disease.
Article in Journal of applied gerontology : the official journal of the Southern Gerontological Society, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Driving reaction time (DRT) is one of the most important predictors of motor vehicle crashes in older adults. Although individuals with preclinical Alzheimer's disease (AD) show subtle cognitive changes that may affect driving, their DRT to emergency events has not been investigated. We compared DRT to an emergency event between 19 drivers with preclinical AD and 21 controls in a driving simulator. All drivers engaged in a car-following task with and without distracters. After the car-following event, a crash prompted participants to brake and maneuver around the accident scene. Drivers with preclinical AD took longer to respond to the emergency event compared to controls when they were not distracted by an additional task (7.56 ± 1.46 s v 6.42 ± 1.17 s;
