Parietal alpha and theta power predict cognitive training gains in middle-aged adults.
Article in Frontiers in aging neuroscience, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Research on executive functions training shows inconsistent outcomes, with factors like age, baseline cognitive abilities, and personality traits implicated as predictive of training gains, while limited attention has been given to neurophysiological markers. Theta and alpha band power are linked to cognitive performance, suggesting a potential area for further study. This study aimed to determine whether relative theta and alpha power and their ratio could predict gains in updating and inhibition training beyond the practice effects (the order of training session). Forty healthy middle-aged adults (aged 49-65) were randomly assigned to either the cognitive training group (
