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

Objectives: We collected opinions about the use of a stroke-specific regional clinical pathway for facilitating collaboration between acute and rehabilitation hospitals in Japan. Methods: The study surveys were administered in acute hospitals designated as primary stroke centers and certified by the Japan Stroke Association (n=961) and in rehabilitation hospitals affiliated with the Kaifukuki Rehabilitation Ward Association (n=1237). The survey collected information on interfacility collaboration when caring for patients admitted during the acute phase following non-traumatic stroke from April 2020 to March 2021. We examined the pathway's usefulness and challenges relative to facility type using the χ Results: Of 422 acute hospitals and 223 rehabilitation hospitals that responded to our survey, 259 (62.1%) acute hospitals and 164 (85.4%) rehabilitation hospitals used the pathway. Fewer rehabilitation hospitals than acute hospitals considered that the pathway was useful (52.0% vs. 63.8%, P=0.02). Fewer rehabilitation hospitals did not experience pathway-related problems when compared with acute hospitals (38.0% vs. 55.8%, P<0.01). Conclusions: Personnel at rehabilitation hospitals were less satisfied with the regional clinical care pathway than those in acute hospitals. These results suggest that the current stroke-specific regional clinical pathway could be improved.
