clojure.core/for with Cypher ExecutionResult - clojure

Question

(defn cypher
[query]
(let [result (-> *cypher* (.execute query))]
(for [row result
column (.entrySet row)]
{(keyword (.getKey column))
(Neo4jVertex. (.getValue column) *g*)})))
repl=> (cypher "start n=node:people('*:*') return n")
{:n #<Neo4jVertex v[1]>}
This query returns two results, yet I'm only able to ever see one using clojure.core/for. How should I be going about this?
The Neo4j docs have this example (which is what I'm trying to emulate):
for ( Map<String, Object> row : result )
{
for ( Entry<String, Object> column : row.entrySet() )
{
rows += column.getKey() + ": " + column.getValue() + "; ";
}
rows += "\n";
}

I think you need clojure.core/doseq (docs) instead.
user=> (doseq [row [1 2 3]]
#_=> [result [4 5 6]]
#_=> (println (str {:row row :result result}))))
{:row 1, :result 4}
{:row 1, :result 5}
{:row 1, :result 6}
{:row 2, :result 4}
{:row 2, :result 5}
{:row 2, :result 6}
{:row 3, :result 4}
{:row 3, :result 5}
{:row 3, :result 6}
So, adapted to your example, something like the following might work:
; ...
(doseq [row result]
[column (.entrySet row)]
(println (str {(keyword (.getKey column)) (Neo4jVertex. (.getValue column) *g*)}))))
; ...
Note that doseq returns nil; you'll have to call something with side effects like println in the body of the doseq form.
It looks like clojure.core/for does list comprehension, so something like the following actually returns a list:
user=> (for [row [1 2 3]
#_=> result [4 5 6]]
#_=> {:row row :result result})
({:row 1, :result 4} {:row 1, :result 5} {:row 1, :result 6} {:row 2, :result 4} {:row 2, :result 5} {:row 2, :result 6} {:row 3, :result 4} {:row 3, :result 5} {:row 3, :result 6})
