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

It is now widely appreciated that culture can shape cognition and neural engagement. However, research investigating the effects of culture across the adult lifespan, with a focus on cognitive aging, is lacking. In this article, we consider why this integration of topics is useful and discuss the ways in which culture has been proposed to affect cognition and the cognitive neuroscience of aging. The literature thus far is reviewed from the perspectives of long-term memory and decision-making, which broadly encompass information processing in the brain and reflect a person's worldview and resulting actions. We argue for the importance of integrating aging into the study of cultural neuroscience, making the case from two different perspectives: the importance of studying cultural influences over the trajectory of the adult lifespan and the importance of understanding the cognitive neuroscience of aging across cultural groups. We discuss challenges and opportunities for future research, concluding that studying the cognitive neuroscience of aging across cultures has the potential to broaden understanding of the factors that contribute to successful cognitive aging as well as age-related decline and pathology.
