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

Severe Acquired Brain Injury (sABI) is a leading cause of disability and requires intensive rehabilitation treatment. Discharge from the rehabilitation ward is a key moment in patient management. Delays in patient discharge can adversely affect hospital productivity and increase healthcare costs. The discharge should be structured from the hospital admission toward the most appropriate environment. The purpose of our study is to investigate early predictors of outcome for discharge in older adults with sABI. A retrospective study was performed on 22 patients who were admitted to an intensive neurorehabilitation unit between June 2019 and December 2021. Patients were divided into two outcome categories, good outcome (GO) or poor outcome (PO), based on discharge destination, and the possible prognostic factors were analyzed at one and two months after admission. Among the factors analyzed, changes in the Disability Rating Scale (DRS) and Level of Cognitive Functioning (LCF) at the first and second month of hospitalization were predictive of GO at discharge (DRS,
