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

backgroundAcute ischemic stroke (AIS) is a leading global cause of disability and mortality, with post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) affecting 20%-40% of survivors. PSCI ranges from mild cognitive decline to dementia, severely hindering functional recovery, increasing healthcare costs, and elevating risks of recurrent stroke and death. While nutritional support aids neuronal repair and reduces oxidative damage, and social support alleviates psychological distress, existing studies often evaluate these interventions in isolation. This study investigates the combined effects of standardized nutritional intervention and structured social support on cognitive function, psychological status, and quality of life (QoL) in AIS patients with cognitive dysfunction, aiming to establish an integrated rehabilitation model.

aimTo explore the effects of nutritional intervention and social support on the cognitive function and psychological status in patients with acute cerebral infarction complicated by cognitive dysfunction.

methodsA retrospective study was conducted. A total of 59 patients with acute cerebral infarction complicated by cognitive dysfunction from January 2023 to December 2023 were selected as the control group. Another 59 patients with the same condition were selected as the research group. The research group received standardized nutritional intervention and regular social support, including dietary guidance, nutritional supplementation, psychological counseling, and family support plans. The control group received routine medical care. Cognitive function, anxiety, depression, QoL, sleep quality, nutritional status, and family satisfaction were compared between the two groups.

resultsThe Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) scores of the research group were higher than those of the control group, with statistically significant differences (

conclusionNutritional intervention and social support significantly improved the cognitive function, psychological status, and QoL in patients with acute cerebral infarction complicated by cognitive dysfunction. These interventions reduced anxiety and depression symptoms, improved sleep and nutritional status, and enhanced the social adaptability of patients as well as family satisfaction.
