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

Cognitive screening is essential for assessing mental health and identifying early cognitive vulnerability. This preliminary phase of a preregistered umbrella project (OSF: https://osf.io/8jz6k) implemented a structured cognitive assessment interview with federal public managers, representing an unprecedented initiative in Brazil. The main objective was to characterize the cognitive status of federal public leaders using a multimodal screening protocol and to examine the contributions of intellectual functioning and age to global cognitive performance. Seventy-eight leaders (M
