[Therapeutic strategies in stroke aftercare. Contents and effects].
Review in Der Nervenarzt, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
No generally accepted guidelines for stroke aftercare exist in Germany. This literature review summarizes the current evidence regarding the content and the effectiveness of aftercare strategies (exercise therapy, physiotherapy, occupational therapy) and their specific dose (intensity, duration, frequency). Exercise therapy (inter alia physiotherapy, resistance, endurance and gait training) has been shown to be effective for improving physical performance (strength, cardiopulmonary fitness, motor function) resulting in beneficial effects on gait, mobility and activities of daily living (ADL). As for the restoration of ADL and the resumption of social and leisure activities occupational therapy proved to be particularly effective. More research is needed to identify the specific effects of different aftercare strategies and their dose-response relationship to provide physicians a better foundation for therapy prescriptions.
