A 3-month multicomponent home-based rehabilitation program for older people with restricted life-space mobility: a pilot study.
Article in Journal of physical therapy science, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to verify the effects of a 3-month multicomponent home-based rehabilitation program developed on the basis of the reevaluation of older people with restricted life-space mobility. [Participants and Methods] The participants were residents in Japan aged ≥65 years who had Life-Space Assessment scores ≤52.3. Multicomponent home-based rehabilitation was conducted by physical and occupational therapists. Each visit included 40-60 min of combined exercise, practicing activities of daily living, improving the home environment, and caregiver support. The programs were developed in accordance with a flow diagram. The primary outcome was life-space mobility evaluated using the Life-Space Assessment score. [Results] Overall, 30 participants completed the intervention. The mean age of the participants was 82.4 ± 7.5 years. Three months after the intervention initiation, the Life-Space Assessment scores significantly improved from 12.0 to 30.5. The proportion of participants at maximal life-space level 5 (unlimited mobility) doubled from 16.7% at baseline to 33.3%. The functional independent measure score, fall efficacy scale score, and lower limb strength associated with standing up also significantly improved. We found no significant changes in the geriatric depression scale 5 and self-rated good health scores. [Conclusion] Multicomponent home-based rehabilitation can improve life-space mobility in older people with restricted life-space mobility.
