Music processing in behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia and Alzheimer's disease: a functional MRI study.
Article in Brain communications, 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
Music engages brain regions involved in perceptual, socio-emotional and cognitive functions that may be relatively preserved in individuals with Alzheimer's disease but seem affected early in behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia. The effects of music in dementia are often assessed through observational studies, leaving the neurophysiological underpinnings of music processing in these dementia types unclear. Improved understanding of these mechanisms is relevant because the effectiveness of music therapy may depend on dementia types. In this study we investigated whether patients with behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia and Alzheimer's disease differ in music processing compared with healthy controls. We studied 60 participants (
