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

Purpose: This multiple-methods study examined perceptions of recovery among stroke survivors and their physiotherapists at discharge from an in-patient rehabilitation program. Method: The Functional Independence Measure (FIM) and Chedoke McMaster Stroke Assessment Activity Inventory scores were collected from chart review and the following outcome measures were completed by interview: Stroke Impact Scale (SIS) global recovery, Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale, and Montreal Cognitive Assessment. Physiotherapists also completed the SIS global recovery for each participant. Spearman and Pearson correlations between SIS recovery and observed measures were completed. The stroke survivors had a short interview about their perception of recovery and what recovery meant to them, and their physiotherapists answered two written questions about each participant's recovery. Responses were coded and categorized based on the International Classification of Functioning. Results: A total of 31 stroke survivors with a mean age of 66.6 years (SD 10.7) and six physiotherapists participated. Nineteen stroke survivors were interviewed. The stroke survivors' SIS recovery scores correlated with FIM-motor change Conclusions: SIS global recovery question helps to measure the overall perceived percentage of recovery. However, the complete picture of recovery is only possible with the stroke survivors' and physiotherapists' perceptions of recovery and what recovery means to them.
