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

Dementia affects approximately 9.6% of Americans aged 65 or older, with these numbers predicted to continue to rise, making it a significant growing public health concern that physical therapists may encounter. Dementia affects a large amount of the PT patient population, yet physical therapists report reduced confidence in treating this population due to the lack of education in academia and reduced exposure to dementia care in clinical practice. This experimental pre-post test study examined the effect of the Leveraging Existing Abilities in Dementia™ training program on confidence in handling various situations and the utilization of communication and treatment strategies discussed in the LEAD™ training program when treating individuals with dementia. Eight rehabilitation providers completed the 12 h LEAD™ training program. Pre-program, post-program, and 3-month surveys were administered to capture confidence in communication, implementation strategies and dementia knowledge. (
