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

purposeThe purpose of this viewpoint is to advocate for increased study of common ground and audience design processes in multiparty communication in traumatic brain injury (TBI).

methodBuilding on discussions at the 2024 International Cognitive-Communication Disorders Conference, we review common ground and audience design processes in dyadic and multiparty communication. We discuss how the diffuse profiles of neural and cognitive deficits place individuals with TBI at increased risk for keeping track of who knows what in group settings and using that knowledge to flexibly adapt their communication behaviors.

resultsWe routinely engage in social communication in groups of three or more people at work, school, and social functions. While academic, vocational, and interpersonal domains are all areas where individuals with TBI are at risk for negative outcomes, we know very little about the impact of TBI on group, or multiparty, communication.

conclusionsThe empirical study of common ground and audience design in multiparty communication in TBI presents a promising new direction in characterizing the impact of TBI on social communication, uncovering the underlying mechanisms of cognitive-communication disorders, and may lead to new interventions aimed at improving success in navigating group communication at work and school, and in interpersonal relationships.
