STELLA-FTD: Examination of a Behavior Change Intervention for Frontotemporal Dementia Family Care Partners.
Article in Alzheimer's & dementia. Behavior & socioeconomics of aging, 2026. 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
Introduction and Objectives: Frontotemporal dementia is the most common dementia in people under age 60. Although FTD is often characterized by behavioral symptoms, few national interventions address management of these symptoms. Here we describe our protocol for STELLA-FTD, an intervention for FTD care partners. Methods: STELLA-FTD is an NIH Stage 1B randomized controlled trial that tests the efficacy of the intervention and will isolate the hypothesized mechanism of action. Two groups (test and control) receive information and peer support over eight weekly sessions. The test group will receive the behavioral management intervention, the control group will not. Results: Prior to implementation, the advisory board (STAR Council) tested the website and participated in mock sessions. Revisions were completed and recruitment started in June 2025. Discussion: STELLA-FTD addresses the needs of an under-studied group, FTD care partners. The study will provide evidence of intervention efficacy and identify the mechanism of action.
