Managing Post-Stroke Fatigue Using a Mobile Health Called iHealth After Intracerebral Hemorrhage.

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
Background: Post-stroke Fatigue (PSF) after Intracerebral Hemorrhage (ICH) is a long-term symptom in stroke survivors. However, the pathogenesis of PSF remains inadequately understood and sufficient evidence-based treatments are lacking. Mobile health (mHealth) technology offers a promising approach to expanding access to high-quality and culturally tailored evidence-based mental care. Aim: This study examined the role of mHealth called iHealth in the management of PSF after ICH. Methods: A total of 225 patients diagnosed with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) were included in the study and randomly assigned to either the Mobile Health Intervention Group (mHI Group) or the non-Mobile Health Intervention Group (non-mHI). The management involved the utilization of a digital healthcare application named iHealth, which incorporated digital questionnaires, fatigue scale tests, and online videos for the purpose of administering the Patient Fatigue Reporting Measurement Information System (PFRMIS) short form as part of the initial patient assessment following ICH. The study was conducted remotely via video conferencing over a 12-week period in mHI Group, with fatigue assessments being conducted 3 months post-ICH onset in two groups. Results: Following the administration of PSF by iHealth, Univariate Logistic analyses indicated a significant association between fatigue and the type of activity, with patients who were sedentary or did nothing experiencing higher levels of fatigue (β=2.332, p<0.001; β=2.517, p<0.001). Multivariate Logistic analyses demonstrated a positive association between the intensity of physical activity and decreased emotional well-being and family support, as well as increased fatigue. (p=0.001, p=0.002, p=0.001). The FSS results demonstrated a significantly reduced incidence of PSF in the MHI group in comparison to non-mHI group following the conclusion of the programme. (13.1% vs 40%, p<0.001). Conclusion: This study explored the effectiveness of the iHealth app for PSF following ICH, indicating that iHealth is a clinically valuable tool that warrants further dissemination.
