1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

This study evaluated whether the Everyday Memory and Metacognitive Intervention (EMMI) improved everyday memory functioning and subjective memory among older adults. The EMMI uses a metacognitive approach to link awareness of situational cognitive demands to the selection and use of strategies to bypass cognitive constraints and to successfully achieve everyday goals. The randomized controlled trial randomly assigned participants to the EMMI group or an active control group trained in mnemonic strategies for word list memorization. We used an event-based ecological momentary assessment smartphone application to assess self-reported everyday memory failures during everyday life. We also evaluated group differences in pretest to posttest change on objective and subjective measures of memory. An intent-to-treat analysis of the 78 persons randomly assigned to conditions revealed no difference in measures assessed prior to the intervention. The final sample consisted of 30 EMMI participants (
