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: Performing two overlapping tasks in dual-task situations requires task-order coordination, particularly when task order varies across trials. This coordination is associated with performance impairments on trials with different-order compared to same-order task sequences relative to the preceding trial (i.e., Methods: The present study investigates task-order coordination and coordination adjustment in a dual-task paradigm in which the order of a visual digit task and an auditory tone task is indicated by explicit cues. Across four sessions, dual-task and single-task practice effects were compared. Results: The results show reduced order-switch costs in Session 4 compared to Session 1, whereas no substantial changes were observed in the switch adjustment effects. Discussion: These findings are interpreted as practice-related improvements in task-order coordination, whereas evidence for practice effects on coordination adjustment remains limited.
