Sleep problems worsen health-related quality of life and participation during the first 12 months of stroke rehabilitation.
Article in Clinical rehabilitation, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
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
objectiveEvaluate the impact of self-reported sleep problems on post-stroke recovery.
designCross-sectional secondary analysis of longitudinal data from the Locomotor Experience Applied Post-Stroke (LEAPS) rehabilitation and recovery study (phase-III single-blind randomized controlled clinical trial). Group medians were compared for three sleep problem groups across three time points.
settingOutpatient and in-home physical therapy. SUBJECTS: Adults during the first year following stroke (
interventionsThe original study compared effects of locomotor training with body weight support in the year post-stroke. This analysis evaluated function in three sleep/functional-impact groups: no sleep problems, sleep problems with no-to-minimal-impact and sleep problems with moderate-to-quite-a-bit of impact. MAIN MEASURES: Participants' responses regarding if they had "a sleep problem, such as insomnia" and, if so, what the impact was on their function. Stroke Impact Scale subscales for strength, hand function, mobility, ADLs, memory, communication, emotion, participation, and percent recovery.
resultsAbout 25% of people with stroke reported sleep difficulty, 10% perceived sleep problems negatively impact function. Groups self-reporting worse sleep performed worse in all functional subscales (except self-perceived percent recovery) during the first year post-stroke.
conclusionSelf-reported poor sleep adversely effects post-stroke functional recovery.
