Functional recovery and blood pressure on acute post-stroke setting.
Article in Turkish journal of physical medicine and rehabilitation, 2019. 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
objectivesThis study aims to evaluate the effects of blood pressure (BP) on functional recovery and length of stay (LOS) in post-stroke patients in an acute rehabilitation facility (ARF). PATIENTS AND
methodsA total of 116 ischemic stroke patients (60 males, 56 females; mean age 70.0±12.8 years; range, 37 to 93 years) who were admitted to the ARF between January 2012 and September 2012 were included. Daily BP measurements with mean systolic and diastolic BP values and Functional Independent Measure (FIM) scores at the time of admission and discharge were measured. The LOS and systolic and diastolic BP ranges were also recorded.
resultsThere was no significant correlation between the BP and FIM scores. The mean diastolic BP was positively correlated with admission (rs=0.316, p=0.01) and discharge (rs=0.287, p=0.002), FIM scores, and FIM effectiveness (rs=0.185, p=0.047) and negatively correlated with age (r=-0.449, p<0.001) and LOS (rs=-0.189, p=0.042). The LOS in hospital was negatively correlated with FIM scores at admission (rs=-0.585, p<0.001) and discharge (rs=-0.352, p<0.001) and positively correlated with FIM score changes (rs=0.414, p<0.001).
conclusionOur study results show that diastolic BP in the subacute phase of stroke does not have a major impact on the functional recovery and LOS in post-stroke patients. However, there is a significant correlation between diastolic BP values and FIM efficiency.
