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

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is linked to cognitive dysfunction, and cognitive motor dual-task blindfold training (CMDBT) may enhance cognition by engaging procedural memory centers. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of CMDBT combined with aerobic and resistance exercises on cognitive function in individuals with T2DM. Methods: A single-center, parallel-group randomized controlled trial with pre- and post-intervention assessments was conducted. Sixty two adults with T2DM were randomly allocated to an experimental group (CMDBT plus moderate-intensity aerobic and resistance training; n = 31) or a control group (aerobic and resistance training only; n = 31). Both groups trained three times per week for 12 weeks. Cognitive function was assessed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) at baseline and after the 12-week intervention. Results: Baseline demographic and clinical characteristics were comparable between groups (all p > 0.05). After 12 weeks, the experimental group showed a mean MoCA increase of 3.32 ± 1.74 to 29.13 ± 0.76 (p < 0.0001), exceeding the minimal clinically important difference of 2.3 points, whereas the control group improved by 0.94 points (25.77 ± 1.45 to 26.71 ± 1.37; p = 0.0006). The adjusted between-group difference was 2.38 points (p = 0.0001), demonstrating a significantly greater cognitive benefit with CMDBT. Conclusion: CMDBT combined with conventional exercises is more effective than CMDT or conventional therapy alone in enhancing cognition and in T2DM, supporting its integration into rehabilitation programs.
