Significance of the Boston Cognitive Assessment in patients with chronic post-stroke cognitive impairment.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: The Boston Cognitive Assessment (BoCA) is an online, self-administered, remote cognitive screening tool for the early detection and long-term monitoring of health changes in the brain of aging populations. This study aimed to evaluate the reliability and validity of the Mandarin version of the BoCA in Chinese patients with stroke, thereby providing a reference for important clinical applications. Methods: This study included 120 patients with chronic stroke and 120 healthy controls. All participants completed the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), and Mandarin versions of the BoCA. Assessments were spaced a minimum of 60 min apart. For the test-retest reliability analysis, 120 patients with stroke were retested on the BoCA after 1 week. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were generated to assess diagnostic performance. Results: Among the stroke group, the BoCA showed appreciable internal consistency (Cronbach's Conclusion: The Mandarin version of the BoCA exhibits significant reliability and validity and functions effectively as a supplementary measure for cognitive assessment in stroke survivors.
