Effect of short-duration, limited rehabilitation on maintenance of the activities of daily living in patients with acute phase of COVID-19.
Article in Journal of physical therapy science, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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] To determine whether short-duration, limited rehabilitation is effective in patients with COVID-19. [Participants and Methods] Single-center, retrospective, observational study. Thirty-six inpatients were classified into the three groups: a close contact (CC) group with a negative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test (n=14); a PCR-positive (PP) group (n=15); and a PCR-positive and transfer (PT) group with severe COVID-19 patients who were transferred to an acute care hospital for treatment and then returned to our hospital (n=7). Short-duration, limited rehabilitation was provided to the CC and PP groups in isolated rooms by a therapist wearing full personal protective equipment, and we assessed the changes in their activities of daily living. [Results] The patients' clinical characteristics at baseline were similar among the three groups. Functional Independence Measure scores in the CC, PP, and PT groups were not different at baseline (69 ± 29, 53 ± 26, and 63 ± 32), but differed after control of COVID-19 (63 ± 25, 47 ± 24, and 32 ± 19). Multivariate regression analysis showed that the implementation of a customized self-exercise program and the Mini Nutritional Assessment Short-Form at baseline were independently associated with Functional Independence Measure score after control of COVID-19. [Conclusion] These results suggest that even short-duration, limited rehabilitation may be effective for preventing decreases in activities of daily living in patients with COVID-19.
