Maintaining cognitive gains in type 2 diabetes: Barriers, supports, and patterns of strategy use.
Article in PloS one, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
In this study, we report how adults with type 2 diabetes maintained cognitive strategies learned in the Memory, Attention, and Problem-Solving Skills for Diabetes (MAPSS-DM) intervention. We identify three patterns of strategy maintenance that emerged from follow-up interviews with 19 participants: sustained use, partial use, and discontinuation. Factors that supported long-term use of strategies include consistent routines, social support, and personal value placed on cognitive improvements. Barriers include inconsistent routines, lack of support, and negative emotions such as guilt. This study emphasizes the need for personalized, adaptable cognitive interventions and ongoing support to promote lasting benefits in both cognitive function and diabetes self-care.
