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

Objective: To implement a telerehabilitation prevention, treatment, and follow-up physical therapy protocol for monitoring individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD) and to verify its effectiveness in minimizing the deleterious effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Design: Prospective case series, involving 40 participants with mild to moderate PD recruited from a specialized neurorehabilitation group. The study was divided into four parts: (1) Phone calls to assess the feasibility of participating in remote physical therapy. (2) Social media training. (3) Baseline and post-intervention assessment for functional lower extremity strength, fear of falling, quality of life, depression, anxiety, activities of daily living, verbal fluency. (4) Intervention protocol consisting of 20 remote weekly physical therapy sessions, graphic material for physical and cognitive training, social activities, and education. Conclusion: The telerehabilitation protocol was viable and effective for patients with PD as an alternative to in-person treatment during the COVID-19 pandemic.
