Randomized controlled trial of multidisciplinary rehabilitation therapy using mobile applications in cases of ankle fractures.
Article in European journal of translational myology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
A multidisciplinary approach to rehabilitation in patients with ankle fractures is needed to return to their daily activities. Mobile health applications can improve or optimize the rehabilitation process. The purpose of this study is to monitor the efficiency of a modified and validated rehabilitation scheme for the functional rehabilitation of the lower limbs. The subjects of the study are patients in the post-immobilization and post-operative period. The algorithm of procedures administered to the patients were performed by physiotherapists and monitored via mobile apps. The results show a reduction of the swelling and the pain, overcoming the muscular imbalance, enhanced stabilization, correct way of walking, and an improved quality of life of the patients with ankle fractures. Despite a certain trend towards residual deficit, the implementation of kinesitherapeutic means creates the necessary background on the basis of which specialized methods can be applied - joint-mobilizing techniques and passive stretching, for the purpose of the full recovery of the functions of the lower extremity. The application of mobile apps optimizes the recovery process and increases access to rehabilitation.
