Implementation of the Gamut of Physiotherapy Maneuvers in Restoration and Normalization of Functional Potencies in a Patient With a Hemorrhagic Stroke: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 stroke is a medical emergency characterized by a sudden onset of focal neurological deficits due to an interruption in the blood flow to the brain tissues, with signs and symptoms persisting for more than 24 hours. Motor, sensory, recognition, language, and perceptual deficiencies are typical signs of the disease, depending on the areas affected, the size of the injury, and the origin of the injury. Patients who have had a stroke frequently have problems like weakness, stiffness, and altered movement patterns in addition to poor balance and mobility issues. Numerous physiotherapeutic strategies concentrate on helping stroke victims recover quickly. Stroke-related mortality rates have decreased over the past few decades due to advancements in stroke therapy and rehabilitation. One approach that can be primarily used to normalization of tone is facilitation by Rood's technique. The present case report is of a 45-year-old female with a history of hypertension presented with complaints of weakness on the right side of the body. The patient had right hemiplegia with more involvement of the right upper extremity. The patient underwent a decompressive craniotomy. On investigation, the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) report revealed an area of blood density attenuation with multiple air foci in the left gangliocapsular region. Treatment was started after the patient was operated on. An approach-oriented rehabilitation program was planned for the patient. Physiotherapy maneuvers such as the proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) approach and Rood's approach were used to restore and normalize functional potencies and recover the patient's condition. Oral facial facilitation was also used for swallowing frequency control, sensory awareness, and motor control. Posttreatment changes such as changes in muscle tone, strength, and mobility, which are essential for patients with the activity of daily living (ADLs), were observed. Outcome measures used in this patient are the Functional Independence of Measures (FIM) scale, Brunnstrom grading, voluntary control grading, and the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS).
