The sensory-motor auditory visual education (SAVE) program for adults with prior concussions: a prospective case study.
Article in Integrative medicine research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe Sensory-Motor Auditory Visual Education (SAVE) Program is an intervention that utilizes an accelerated multisensory integration process to facilitate neuroplasticity. This study aimed to determine if the SAVE Program might benefit individuals with residual symptoms from a prior concussion.
methodsThe study consists of two 1-hour sessions per day for 5 consecutive days. Five individuals were recruited and completed a symptom questionnaire, static postural assessment, auditory detection assessment, peripheral vision assessment, and a battery of computerized cognitive tests.
resultsFollowing the treatment program, 5 individuals showed significant (p < 0.05) improvements in various reported symptoms, significant (p < 0.05) improvements in recognizing colors further from the center of a target, and better detection of an auditory stimulus in the right ear. All tested cognitive domains improved, except for episodic memory accuracy and choice reaction time. The most notable improvements were in planning latency (29.94%), planning accuracy (19%), and working memory accuracy (34.30%). The results of the balance assessment were mixed.
conclusionThe results suggested that the SAVE Program may be a beneficial treatment of residual symptoms from a prior concussion. However, the intrinsic caveats of a case series require more rigorous research.
