Challenges in the practical application of the Vienna test system for assessing cognitive functions in the general, athletic and clinical populations: a global scoping review of experimental and observational studies.
Review in Frontiers in sports and active living, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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
The Vienna Test System (VTS) is a widely used computerized tools for assessing psychology-related constructs in different populations. Our objectives were to (1) identify the available evidence on the use of VTS, (2) examine how research is conducted using VTS and, therefore, (3) draw attention to the challenges in the practical application of the VTS for assessing cognitive functions in general, athletic and clinical populations. A literature search following the JBI and PRISMA guidelines for scoping reviews was conducted in September 2024 across four databases (PubMed, Web of Science, ELSEVIER Scopus, and EBSCOhost) to identify peer-reviewed articles reporting cognitive functions measured by at least one VTS cognitive test. Of the 79 identified articles, 24 used the VTS to assess cognitive function in the general population, while 41 and 14 studies recruited participants from the athletic and clinical populations, respectively. Our analysis revealed RT (36.7% of total articles,
