Multicomponent exercise improved cognitive flexibility and muscular fitness in community-dwelling older adults.
Article in Science progress. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
ObjectiveCognitive flexibility is the ability to transition between various tasks flexibly, which declines in aging. The purpose of this quasi-experimental study was to investigate the effect of a 12-week multicomponent exercise intervention on cognitive flexibility and attention, measured by color trail test (CTT)-1, CTT-2, and CTT 2-1 difference, in community-dwelling older adults. The relationship between cognitive flexibility and muscular fitness was also examined.MethodsThe participants were assigned to either the exercise group (
