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

Introduction: Assessing attention and frontal lobe function is essential for diagnosing dementia. The Stroop test is widely used for these purposes, and its validity and reliability have been verified. Nevertheless, test-related burdens and procedural complexity have prevented their use as a screening tool. We developed a novel Stroop test using eye-tracking technology and evaluated its validity and utility in a clinical setting. Methods: The study included 97 older adults at a memory clinic. Participants completed both the eye-tracking-based and conventional paper-based Stroop tests, along with MMSE, FAB, and TMT-A/B. Results: Scores on the eye-tracking-based Stroop test significantly correlated with the paper-based test ( Discussion: The eye-tracking-based Stroop test has the potential to efficiently assess frontal lobe function and serve as a screening tool for dementia.
