Cognition and brain network connectivity in timed up & go performance.
Article in GeroScience, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Gait performance depends on numerous aspects of brain functioning that are also relevant to key cognitive processes throughout the lifespan. The Timed Up and Go (TUG) test has been shown to be a reliable tool for assessing age-related mobility changes and risk of falls in older adults. This study aimed to predict TUG performance using motor-cognitive inter-network connectivity, cognitive performance and socio-demographics. 189 participants without cognitive impairment were included. Mobility was measured with the TUG through a wireless inertial sensor device. Functional connectivity between the somatomotor hand, cerebellar, and cognitive-related networks was assessed using pairwise correlations among 264 predefined regions assigned to large-scale functional networks. Connectivity between networks was summarized by averaging Fisher z-transformed values across all ROI pairs linking each network pair. Three linear regression models were constructed including the dependent variables TUG total time, turning time and turning peak-angular velocity (PAV) and the independent variables age, sex, years of education, memory and executive performance, and inter-network connectivity patterns. Somatomotor hand - ventral attentional and cerebellar - DMN inter-network connectivity were significant predictors of TUG total time. Memory performance, somatomotor hand - salience and -cingulo opercular inter-network connectivity were significant predictors of turning time. Age, years of education, somatomotor hand - dorsal attentional and cerebellar - cingulo opercular network activation were significant predictors of turning PAV. Findings indicate different contributions of attentional systems to gait performance in aging.
