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

Mental training, including motor observation and motor imagery, has awakened much academic interest. The presumed functional equivalence of motor imagery and motor execution has given hope that mental training could be used for motor rehabilitation after a stroke. Results obtained from randomized controlled trials have shown mixed results. Approximately half of the studies demonstrate positive effects of motor imagery training but the rest do not show an additional benefit. Possible reasons why motor imagery training has so far not become established as a robust therapeutic approach are discussed in detail. Moreover, more recent approaches, such as neurofeedback-based motor imagery or closed-loop systems are presented and the potential importance for motor learning and rehabilitation after a stroke is discussed.
