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

The study aimed to analyze the functional outcome and mobility in stroke patients depending on their cognitive state. 180 patients after first stroke were divided into four groups: 48 patients without symptoms of cognitive impairment (G1); 38 with mild cognitive impairment without dementia (G2); 47 with mild dementia (G3); 47 with moderate dementia (G4). The Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE), Barthel Index (BI), Sitting Assessment Scale (SAS), Berg Balance Scale, Trunk Control Test and Test Up & Go were used. The tests were carried out at the time of admission to the ward (T1) and at the time of discharge (T2). A statistically significant improvement was demonstrated in all parameters in almost all groups. No significant difference was observed only in groups G1 and G4 in SAS head. Statistically significant differences in BI results in T2 between groups G1 and G4 were noted. The lowest change in BI was observed in the G4. Regression analysis showed that MMSE and BI at T1 and MMSE score at T2 explained the functional status at T2. Cognitive dysfunction at the time of admission to the ward and discharge may determining the patient's functional status at the time of discharge from the ward.
