Neuropsychological rehabilitation in executive deficits resulting from alcohol use disorder: systematic review of literature.
Synthesis in Frontiers in psychology, 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
Objectives: In recent years, there has been a growing interest in neuropsychological rehabilitation for alcohol use disorders. However, doubts persist regarding its impact on the recovery of executive functions. This systematic literature review summarizes the existing empirical evidence on the association between neuropsychological rehabilitation and the recovery of executive functions, including working memory, inhibition, flexibility, and planning, in individuals with alcohol use disorders. Methods: This review (registration number, Prospero CRD42023393730) was conducted in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines. The PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Cochrane databases were searched. Only randomized clinical trials were included. A narrative analysis of the results was undertaken. The Cochrane Collaboration tool ROB-2 was used to assess risk of bias. Results: Eight randomized controlled trials with 356 participants were considered eligible. The results indicated that neuropsychological rehabilitation can positively impact the recovery of executive functions in individuals with alcohol use disorders. Some studies also found improvements in non-cognitive domains with this type of intervention, such as the compulsion to consume alcohol, psychological wellbeing, and relapse prevention. Most studies assessed efficacy after 1 month. Conclusion: Neuropsychological rehabilitation promotes greater efficacy in recovering executive functions in alcohol use disorder treatment.
