Comparing Home Upper Extremity Activity with Clinical Evaluations of Arm Function in Chronic Stroke.
Article in Archives of rehabilitation research and clinical translation, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT02665052 (Translating Intensive Arm Rehabilitation in Stroke to a Telerehabilitation Format), which is not on this map.

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
objectiveTo determine if clinical evaluations of post-stroke arm function correspond to everyday motor performance indexed by arm accelerometers.
designCross-sectional study analyzing baseline data from a larger trial (NCT02665052).
settingOutpatient research center.
participantsTwenty community-dwelling adults with chronic arm motor deficits (stroke≥6mo).
intervention72-hours of home wrist-worn accelerometry during normal routine.
main outcome measuresClinical evaluations included the Fugl-Meyer (FM), Action Research Arm Test (ARAT), Wolf Motor Function Test (WMFT), and two self-assessments: the Motor Activity Log (MAL) and hand motor subscale of the Stroke Impact Scale (SIS). Accelerometer-derived variables included quantifications of movement intensity (magnitude) and duration of arm use.
resultsParticipants had moderate arm impairment (FM 36.1 ± 9.4). The accelerometer-derived mean magnitude ratio correlated significantly with the FM (
conclusionsParticipants with higher baseline function had greater intensity of paretic arm movement at home; similarly, those who perceived they had less disability used their paretic arm more relative to their non-paretic arm. However, some participants with higher clinical scores did not exhibit greater arm use in everyday life, possibly due to neglect and learned non-use. Therefore, individualized home accelerometry profiles could provide valuable insight to better tailor post-stroke rehabilitation.
