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

It remains challenging to optimize treatment for individuals with aphasia. One of the reasons is that the language processing deficits associated with aphasia have various underlying linguistic and nonlinguistic causes. The utility of cognitive training focusing on attention and working memory has been investigated in aphasia treatment. However, a related cognitive function, namely, cognitive control, remains underexplored. This article leverages treatment and enablement theories to evaluate current cognitive treatments and guide the development of new treatments focused on cognitive control in aphasia. We provide the theoretical and empirical rationale for exploring the clinical significance of cognitive control in aphasia rehabilitation and discuss how treatment and enablement theories may be used to develop a systematic cognitive training approach. We conclude with future directions for cognitive control research that can advance more personalized aphasia rehabilitation.
