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

Objective: Dysphagia frequently co-occurs with cognitive impairment, suggesting that swallowing may involve cognitive processes. However, the relationship between cognitive load and swallowing performance remains unclear. This study aimed to examine the effects of different levels of cognitive load on swallowing performance under dual-task conditions in healthy adults. Methods: Forty-three graduate students (mean age: 24.49 ± 1.63 years, male/female: 22/21) were recruited and performed five tasks: swallowing single task (SST), low-load cognitive single task (ST Results: Swallowing volume differed significantly among SST, DT Conclusion: The findings confirm that swallowing engages executive function and attentional resources, and suggest that participants prioritize swallowing performance during dual-task conditions by adjusting prefrontal activation patterns rather than increasing overall cortical activation to manage interference. This study provides preliminary evidence for the cognitive involvement in swallowing and highlights the need to consider cognitive load in dysphagia assessment and rehabilitation.
