Sedentary behavior, cognition, and brain health in older adults: a systematic review.
Synthesis in Frontiers in aging neuroscience, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Sedentary behavior has been associated with poor health outcomes, especially in older adulthood. Given that sedentary behavior is a highly prevalent, modifiable health behavior, there has been a recent increased interest in examining how sedentary behavior relates to cognition and brain health. The current body of literature is limited and mixed. The purpose of this systematic review was to examine the associations of sedentary behavior with cognition and brain health in older adults across the cognitive spectrum. This study was pre-registered with PROSPERO (CRD42023477868). Six comprehensive databases were searched with pre-registered search terms. A total of 33 studies were included. Overall, results indicated that greater sedentary behavior was associated with worse cognition and brain health, although associations varied based on differences in measurement and classification of sedentary behavior. We discuss next steps and implications for future research.
