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

Working memory, the capacity to store information for near-immediate use, and visual attention, the ability to focus on task-relevant information, are integral skills for military personnel. In civilian populations, stress is associated with worse skills. However, little is known about the relationship between stress, working memory, and visual attention in military officers, who are trained to handle acute stress and operate in high-stress environments. Thirty-three military officers completed a working memory test, a Perceived Stress Questionnaire (PSQ), and an oculometric assessment of visual tracking. The oculometric test was a modified step-ramp test that produces 10 z-scored metrics. Working memory and executive function were assessed via the n-back task. Oculometric performance and self-reported stress levels were independently associated with n-back accuracy, explaining 67% of the variance (adjusted R
