Use of Mobile/Tablet and Web-Based Applications to Support Rehabilitation After Stroke: 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 12 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
objectiveTo describe and review evidence of mobile/tablet and web-based applications to support the rehabilitation process after stroke. The secondary aim was to describe participants' stroke severity, and use of applications in relation to, respectively, the setting and phase of the rehabilitation process.
methodsA scoping review methodology was used to identify studies, through databases such as Pub-Med, CINAHL, Embase and AMED. In addition, grey literature was searched. The studies were categorized according to Wade's model of rehabilitation.
resultsThe literature search resulted in 12,065 records. Forty-six studies were included, in which applications were used to support: assessment (n = 16); training (n = 25); discharge from hospital (n = 2); and 2 studies were targeted at supporting discharge/education/information and training. One study targeted assessment, discharge support and goal-setting. No studies were related to the element "participation" using Wade's model of rehabilitation. Of the 46 studies, 33 studies included participants with mild to moderate stroke, and 4 studies included participants with severe stroke. In 9 studies the stroke severity was not reported. Twenty three studies included participants with chronic stroke, 16 acute and/or subacute stroke, and 5 included participants with acute and/or subacute and/or chronic stroke. In 2 studies, stroke onset was not reported. Applications were used in a rehabilitation setting (n = 21), home setting (n = 17), and both settings (n = 3). In 5 studies the setting was not reported.
conclusionMost studies of applications developed to support the rehabilitation process after stroke have been explorative. They primarily include participants with mild or moderate stroke and focus on a limited aspect of the rehabilitation process, e.g. assessment or training. Future applications to support stroke rehabilitation should accommodate stroke survivors' and significant others' need for solutions, irrespective of stroke severity and throughout the entire rehabilitation process.
