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.

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.

Abstract

Stroke results in impairment of basic motor functions, such as muscle weakness in limbs affected by spasticity, leading to peripheral fatigue and impaired functionality. The clinical use of photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) has provided major advances in the treatment of muscular disorders and prevention of muscle fatigue. The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of two distinct therapies in biceps spasticity of chronic hemiparetic patients. We analyzed range of elbow motion, torque, electromyography, and mean spectral frequency after 10 sessions of PBMT (Laser 100 mW, 808 nm, 159.24 J/cm
