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

Introduction: Five-element music therapy is widely utilized as a complementary approach in stroke rehabilitation, particularly for addressing post-stroke depression (PSD). This study systematically evaluates the clinical impact of five-element music therapy on individuals experiencing PSD. Methods: A comprehensive search of nine electronic databases, encompassing published and unpublished gray literature up to February 15, 2022, was conducted. Two investigators independently reviewed and extracted data, evaluating bias risk according to predefined criteria. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 software. Results: Inclusive of 20 studies involving 1561 individuals with PSD, the meta-analysis revealed a significant difference in favor of five-element music therapy for relieving depression (standardized mean difference [SMD] = -1.07, 95% confidence interval [CI]: -1.34 to -0.81, Conclusion: Five-element music therapy demonstrated efficacy in improving depressive symptoms, daily living skills, and serum 5-HT levels in individuals experiencing PSD.The review was registered on International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (registration number CRD 42022332282).
