Pre-stroke physical activity in relation to post-stroke outcomes - linked to the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF): A scoping review.
Article in Journal of rehabilitation medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 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
objectiveThis scoping review aims to identify how pre-stroke physical activity (PA) has been studied in relation to outcomes after stroke using the ICF framework.
methodsMEDLINE, CINAHL, Scopus, and grey literature databases were systematically searched from inception to March 15, 2021, with no language restrictions. Risk of bias was evaluated for all included studies. Identified outcome measures were linked to ICF components using linking rules, and the main findings were summarized.
resultsOf 3664 records screened, 35 studies were included. The risk of bias was graded as moderate to critical for all studies. There were 60 unique outcome measures studied in relation to pre-stroke PA, covering the hyper acute to chronic phases of stroke recovery. Outcome measures linked to body functions were most common (n=19), followed by activities and participation (n=14), body structures (n=7), environmental factors (n=4) and personal factors (n=2). There were large differences in assessments of pre-stroke PA, and only one study analysed haemorrhagic cases separately.
conclusionsPre-stroke PA has been studied in relation to all components in the ICF framework. However, this review highlights the high risk of bias, heterogeneity in pre-stroke PA assessments, and the lack of information regarding haemorrhagic strokes in the current literature.
