Innovative Telerehabilitation Enhanced Care Programme (ITECP) in young and middle-aged patients with haemorrhagic stroke to improve exercise adherence: protocol of a multicentre randomised controlled trial.
Article in BMJ open, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
introductionExercise rehabilitation is crucial for promoting the rehabilitation of limb motor function in people who had stroke and is related to a better prognosis. However, the exercise adherence of patients is low, which affects the effect of exercise rehabilitation. This study aims to evaluate the effects of the Innovative Telerehabilitation Enhanced Care Programme (ITECP) on exercise adherence in young and middle-aged patients with haemorrhagic stroke. We hypothesise that patients trained with ITECP will show greater improvement in exercise adherence and muscle strength than patients with routine exercise rehabilitation. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This is a randomised controlled, evaluator-blinded multicentre superiority trial to be implemented at four tertiary grade-A hospitals in eastern, western, northern and central China. Patients in the experimental group will receive ITECP while those in the control group will receive routine exercise rehabilitation. Both groups will receive routine care. The primary outcome measure is exercise adherence, while secondary outcome measures include muscle strength, activities of daily living, exercise self-efficacy, quality of life, rate of exercise-related adverse events and readmission. These will be measured at baseline, predischarge as well as 1 and 3 months postdischarge. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: The study has obtained ethical approval from the Medical Ethics Committee of Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital, The Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School (2021-381-02). The results will be shared with young and middle-aged patients with haemorrhagic stroke, policy-makers, the general public, as well as academia. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: Chinese Clinical Trials Registry (ChiCTR 2200066498).
