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
Cognitive impairment is required to diagnose mild cognitive impairment with Lewy bodies (MCI-LB). However, associations of impairments across cognitive domains remain unclear. In this cross-sectional study, we investigated these associations by assessing the cognitive connectome of MCI-LB patients compared with healthy controls (HC), mild cognitive impairment due to Alzheimer's disease (MCI-AD), and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). Using the National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center database, we built cognitive connectomes for MCI-LB (n = 88), HC (n = 3703), MCI-AD (n = 1789), and DLB (n = 104) by correlating 24 cognitive measures. We compared global and nodal network measures of centrality (importance of cognitive measure), integration (communication across cognitive measures), and segregation (specialisation of cognitive measures) between groups. For global measures, MCI-LB showed lower segregation than HC, with no significant differences from MCI-AD, and lower integration) and higher segregation than DLB. For nodal measures, MCI-LB compared with HC and MCI-AD showed differences in executive and memory measures, respectively. MCI-LB showed several nodal differences compared with DLB, involving executive, processing speed/attention, and language measures. Our findings suggest that MCI-LB involves early changes in the cognitive connectome, particularly reduced segregation that becomes more pronounced at the DLB stage and shows overlap with MCI-AD, offering insights into cognitive impairment in MCI-LB.
