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

objectiveTo examine the role of administration setting (remote vs. in-person) on performance on four self-administered, smartphone-based neuropsychological measures delivered via the Mobile Toolbox (MTB) and MyCog Mobile (MCM) platforms.

methodsParticipants self-administered four cognitive tasks (i.e. Executive Function, Face Memory, Picture Memory, and Working Memory) on a smartphone either in the lab or remotely (in-person

resultsRemote testing was associated with higher Picture Memory Trial 1 scores (β = 1.114,

conclusionsPerformance on self-administered smartphone tasks was largely comparable across settings, with only small, subtest-specific differences in performance on memory tasks. These results support remote self-administration for research use while highlighting the need for design strategies that preserve score validity across settings.
