Feasibility of digital multidomain cognitive testing in mild cognitive impairment and dementia assessment in primary care.
Article in Journal of Alzheimer's disease reports. 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
Background: Primary care plays a central role in identifying and monitoring mild cognitive impairment (MCI), Alzheimer's disease and other dementias, yet access to suitable cognitive assessment tools remains limited. Objective: To evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, usability and preliminary clinical validity of a digital multidomain cognitive test battery in routine primary care neurocognitive assessments. Methods: A total of 77 patients undergoing neurocognitive assessment across eight Swedish primary care centers were recruited and grouped by final diagnosis: 26 subjective cognitive impairment (SCI), 28 MCI, and 23 dementia. Participants completed a digital cognitive test battery consisting of eight traditional tests administered on the Mindmore platform via touchscreen tablets and supervised by occupational therapists (OTs). Clinicians were blinded to test results. Cognitive performance was compared across diagnostic groups and against normative data. Patient and OT experiences were collected using structured surveys. Results: Cognitive performance declined progressively from SCI to MCI to dementia on all tests. The battery yielded a detailed cognitive profile spanning 10 main test results across five cognitive domains. All included patients completed the test battery, they reported clear instructions, and 58% preferred tablet-based over paper-based testing. OTs considered the battery appropriately challenging in this population, provided some assistance in 69% of cases, and expected the battery to yield reliable results. Conclusions: These findings support the feasibility of integrating multidomain digital cognitive testing in primary health care with limited clinician burden. This is a promising approach for increasing availability of standardized detailed cognitive assessments at early levels of care.
