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
Objectives: Non-pharmacological approaches are preferable to improve functional capacity and reduce emotional disorders for dementia patients with cognitive decline. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) combined with reminiscence therapy (RT) on cognitive function and behavioral and psychological symptoms in older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or mild dementia due to Alzheimer's disease (AD). Methods: A total of 114 participants were randomly assigned to receive the reminiscence therapy combined with the MBSR program ( Results: The RT+MBSR group exhibited lower scores in the ADAS-Cog scale, CSDD scale, and NPI scale, with a higher score in the SIWB scale than the RT group post intervention and 3 months post intervention, suggesting MBSR program combined with RT could improve cognitive function, depressive, behavioral symptoms, and spiritual wellbeing of older adults with MCI or mild dementia. Conclusion: The positive effects of MBSR program combined with RT on cognitive function and neuropsychiatric symptoms among patients with MCI or mild dementia suggest the need for more widespread use of this combination for older adults in geriatric care units.
