Cognitive abilities and psychosocial functioning in bipolar disorder: findings from the BIPLONG study.
Article in Frontiers in human neuroscience, 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
Background: Bipolar disorder is associated with impairments in cognition and psychosocial functioning. Although these impairments occur frequently, often persist during euthymic times, and worsen quality of life, the impact of cognitive abilities on functioning has not yet been fully elucidated. Methods: The current study investigated the effects of cognitive domains (attention/psychomotor speed, verbal learning/memory, executive function) on psychosocial functioning cross-sectionally. Data from 210 euthymic individuals with bipolar disorder [101 female, 109 male; Results: Correlation analyses revealed that functioning was positively associated with attention/psychomotor speed and verbal learning/memory. However, the consecutive hierarchical regression analyses found that none of the cognitive domains were able predict functioning beyond the control variables age, sex, and education. Conclusion: Our findings indicate that greater abilities in the domains of attention/psychomotor speed and verbal learning/memory are associated with better functioning. However, this association can be explained by other relevant variables such as age or education, indicating that cognitive abilities are not the sole contributor of psychosocial functioning. Investigating other measurements of functioning or cognitive abilities could lead to different results. Nevertheless, promoting cognitive abilities and autonomy in daily life remains an important aspect of therapy in bipolar disorder.
