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.

Abstract

Robotic-assisted devices are known to positively affect the recovery of one specific motor effector after stroke. However, it has widely been reported that the functional status of patients is only partially ameliorated after application of this kind of advanced treatment. Here, data about the effect of a new rehabilitation approach has been described in a large population of stroke patients. We sought to validate an integrated rehabilitation system for stroke (IRSS) patients, which is composed of a set of robotic-assisted tools aimed at recovering the entire body. We evaluated the motor recovery in 84 stroke patients equally divided into experimental and control groups to assess the difference between IRSS approach and conventional rehabilitation treatment. We found that IRSS induced a significant improvement as measured by functional neurological scales, such as the barthel index and functional independence measure. The data provided in this article will assist therapists and physicians working for developing new rehabilitation protocols more focused on a holistic functional recovery approach. The data are available at Mendeley Data, https://doi.org/10.17632/wptmgm7zk2.1.
