Implementation of High-Intensity Stepping Training During Inpatient Stroke Rehabilitation Improves Functional Outcomes.
Article in Stroke, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 6 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 58 papers, 4 of them syntheses that pooled 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

Abstract
Background and Purpose- Therapeutic strategies that capitalize on the intrinsic capacity for neurological recovery early poststroke to improve locomotion are uncertain. Emerging data suggest that task-specific stepping practice provided at higher cardiovascular intensities may be critical dosage parameters that could maximize locomotor recovery. The purpose of this investigation was to determine the comparative effectiveness of providing high-intensity training on locomotor capacity early poststroke as compared with usual care. Methods- A quasi-experimental design was used to compare changes in stepping activity (StepWatch), walking, and balance outcomes during usual care (n=56) versus high-intensity stepping intervention (n=54) in inpatient stroke patients. Primary outcomes assessed weekly included self-selected and fastest gait speed, 6-minute walk test, and the Berg Balance Scale, with secondary outcomes of Swedish Postural Assessment Scale for Stroke-Norwegian version, Functional Ambulation Category, 30-s sit-to-stand, strength (average manual muscle testing), and Barthel Index. Regression analyses identified relationships between demographics, baseline function, and training activities (steps per day; duration achieved, 70%-85% maximum heart rates) and primary outcomes at discharge. Results- Following implementation of high-intensity stepping, average steps per day (5777±2784) were significantly greater than during usual care (3917±2656;
