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
Almost half of the patients surveyed report impaired function of the upper limbx and handx after stroke. The effect of the passive trunk and shoulder stabilization on the recovery of coordinated hand movement is unclear. This study examined whether passive stabilization of the trunk and shoulder could improve the functional state of the hands after various types of strokes. It is an observational prospective cohort study conducted at the Rehabilitation Clinic in two parallel groups of patients with four different types of strokes (hemorrhagic and ischemic of the brain, similar to the cerebellum). A total of 120 patients were analyzed. Patients were examined in various positions: sitting without a backrest with the upper limb adjacent to the body, supine with the upper limb perpendicular to the body, and supine with the arm stabilized in relation to the patient's body. Hand Tutor devices and a hand dynamometer were used for the measurements. The frequency and maximum range of motion as well as the grip strength were measured in three different positions of the trunk and upper limb. Passive stabilization of the trunk and shoulder showed more statistically significant differences in Group II. In group II, both in patients after hemorrhagic stroke (wrist Hz
