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
objectiveTo investigate the effect of contralateral controlled functional electrical stimulation (CCFES) combined with mirror therapy on motor function and negative mood in stroke patients.
methodsMedical records of 94 stroke patients in Baoji Central Hospital admitted from April 2020 to October 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 45 patients receiving routine rehabilitation training combined with mirror therapy were included in a control group, and 49 patients receiving CCFES combined with mirror therapy were in an observation group. Observation indexes included changes in Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAMA), Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD), Stroke Specific Quality of Life Scale (SS-QoL) score, and Barthel Index score before and after treatment. Patients with HAMA score >14 and HAMD score ≥20 after the treatment were included in a negative mood group, and logistics regression was used to analyze the risk factors for negative mood.
resultsThe observation group had a significantly higher overall response rate after treatment compared to the control group. In addition, the observation group exhibited significantly higher scores in the FMA and BBS after treatment, indicating better physical function (P<0.001). Furthermore, the observation group showed lower HAMA and HAMD scores after treatment, suggesting reduced anxiety and depression levels (P<0.001). The quality-of-life scores measured by the SS-QoL and the Barthel Index score were both increased in the observation group after treatment, indicating better overall well-being and functional independence (P<0.001). Logistic regression analysis revealed that age, post-treatment SS-QoL scores, and post-treatment Barthel Index were identified as influencing factors for the onset of adverse emotions in patients (P<0.05).
conclusionCCFES plus mirror therapy can effectively ameliorate limb function and lessen anxiety and depression in stroke patients, exerting beneficial effects on rehabilitation.
