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

[Purpose] This study aimed to examine the effects of differences in the goals recognized by the client and the occupational therapist on patient outcome. [Participants and Methods] A retrospective case-control study was conducted to compare rehabilitation outcomes of cases wherein the occupational therapy goals were matched/unmatched (control) with those of the patients in seven subacute rehabilitation wards in Japan. The outcomes were Functional Independence Measure, number of days of hospitalization, occupational therapy, and total medical cost. [Results] The motor Functional Independence Measure scores in the matched-goal group were significantly higher than those of the unmatched-goal group, and the home discharge rate showed a tendency to increase. It was speculated whether the client had received an explanation about the goal. [Conclusion] Rehabilitation outcome may vary depending on whether occupational therapy goals are matched.
