The relationship between community spiritual comfort services and cognitive function in the older adults: a random intercept cross-lagged panel study.
Article in European journal of ageing, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundTo explore whether the impact of community spiritual comfort service (CSCS) on cognitive function is mediated by social participation and moderated by genetic factors.
methodsData were derived from the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey conducted in 2008, 2011, 2014, and 2018, involving 3598 participants. A Random Intercept Cross-Lagged Panel Model was utilized to determine the relationship between CSCS and cognitive function, as well as the mediating role of social participation and the moderating effect of genetics on the identified CSCS and cognitive function relationship.
resultsLower levels of CSCS at earlier assessment points were significantly associated with lower cognitive function at subsequent assessment points. Social participation partially mediated the prospective relationship between CSCS and cognitive function. Distinct genetic polymorphisms showed significant differences in effect sizes, with the Val group experiencing a significantly greater impact of CSCS on subsequent social participation, and of social participation on subsequent cognitive function, compared to the Met group.
conclusionEnhancements in CSCS can predict subsequent improvements in cognitive function. The relationship between CSCS and cognitive function can be mediated by social participation and is moderated by genetic factors. Multidisciplinary interventions aimed at improving the quality of CSCS and enhancing social participation will benefit the cognitive and psychological health of the older adults.
