Effect of cranioplasty on FIM in patients with severe cerebral infarction after cerebral decompression.
Article in Japanese journal of comprehensive rehabilitation science, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Arai N, Abe Y, Metani H, Hiraoka T, Hanayama K. Effect of cranioplasty on FIM in patients with severe cerebral infarction after cerebral decompression. Jpn J Compr Rehabil Sci 2023; 14: 33-38. Objective: The functional effects of cranioplasty were measured in patients with severe cerebral infarction who had undergone cerebral decompression by comparing the functional independence measure (FIM) during convalescent rehabilitation before and after cranioplasty. Methods: The study design was a single-center retrospective cohort study. Results: Fifty-five patients underwent cerebral decompression after cerebral infarction at our hospital, six of whom were included in this study. Two patients who exhibited cranial depression had no changes in FIM one month prior to cranioplasty. However, the FIM increased one month postoperatively. These patients showed a large increase in the scores for movement and transfer. Discussion: Cranioplasty may play a role in improving ability during convalescent rehabilitation in patients with severe cerebral infarction who undergo cerebral decompression, especially in movement and transfer items.
