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

Neurorehabilitation is progressively shifting from purely in-clinic treatment to therapy that is provided in both clinical and home-based settings. This transition generates a pressing need for assessments that can be performed across the entire continuum of care, a need that might be accommodated by application of wearable sensors. A first step toward ubiquitous assessments is to augment validated and well-understood standard clinical tests. This route has been pursued for the assessment of motor functioning, which in clinical research and practice is observation-based and requires specially trained personnel. In our study, 21 patients performed movement tasks of the Action Research Arm Test (ARAT), one of the most widely used clinical tests of upper limb motor functioning, while trained evaluators scored each task on pre-defined criteria. We collected data with just two wrist-worn inertial sensors to guarantee applicability across the continuum of care and used machine learning algorithms to estimate the ARAT task scores from sensor-derived features. Tasks scores were classified with approximately 80% accuracy. Linear regression between summed clinical task scores (across all tasks per patient) and estimates of sum task scores yielded a good fit (
