[Driving improvement in spinal cord injury patients using virtual reality. Systematic review].
Synthesis in Revista de neurologia, 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
introductionSpinal cord injury is a pathology which causes motor and sensory impairment under the region damaged by the lesion. This results in limitations in daily activities such as driving. In recent years, improvement in this task has been achieved by means of virtual reality treatment in the rehabilitation of patients with spinal cord injury. The aim of the present study was to analyze, through a systematic review, the effectiveness of using virtual reality on driving skills in patients with spinal cord injury. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe literature search was carried out using the following databases: PubMed, Web of Science, PEDro, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Medline, Scopus and CINAHL, including articles published from January 2000 to May 2021.
resultsAfter the research process, out of a total of 51 articles, 7 were included: 2 applied immersive VR and 5 semi-immersive VR. Road driving simulation was addressed by 4 of them: 1 on sailing, 1 on motorbike and 1 on bicycle.
conclusionsThe use of virtual reality in driving skills training has led to improvements in quality of life, driving skills and reduction of fear of driving. Despite these findings, more research, patients, sessions and improvements are needed for a clearer understanding of this topic and its usefulness.
