1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

The aim of this case report is to present an early individualized rehabilitative plan for a post-stroke patient with limb spasticity given that stroke is a leading cause for disability that involves prolonged hospital stay and neurorehabilitation strategies. The rehabilitation plan consisted of conventional physical therapy and radial extracorporeal shock wave therapy (rESWT), and the results were evaluated through clinical assessment together with an innovative gait analysis system. Two rESWT sessions and conventional physical therapy program decreased spasticity grade and pain intensity, and improved ankle range of motion, balance and gait.
