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

Background: Home-based rehabilitation has been shown to be useful for stroke survivors to participate in daily life activities and return to their families. However, many home-based stroke survivors face challenges in the lack of professional guidance, rational training plans, and insufficient motivation, which will affect their rehabilitation outcomes to varying degrees. Though occupational therapy and coaching are widely recommended for stroke rehabilitation, studies that combine these two interventions via telerehabilitation in home-based rehabilitation are limited. Hence, this study will explore whether coaching-based teleoccupational guidance (CTG) will help stroke survivors and caregivers obtain satisfactory outcomes. Methods: This single-blind (assessor), two-arm parallel superior randomised controlled trial will be conducted in the Hebei General Hospital, Shijiazhuang, China. Ninety-two participant dyads in home-based rehabilitation will be recruited and randomised to either CTG (intervention group) or a standard telerehabilitation group (control group). Participant dyads in the intervention group will follow a 6-step circle procedure and receive 12 teleoccupational coaching sessions over 3 months via WeChat. Data will be collected at baseline, after the intervention (3 months), and follow-up (6 months). The Reintegration to Normal Living Index will be the primary outcome to assess the participation of stroke survivors. Secondary outcomes will not only involve an observation of changes in activities of daily living, intrinsic motivation, motor function, and quality of life of stroke survivors but also will focus on the caregivers' perceived benefit and care burden.
