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

introductionPatients who have suffered a stroke may present with visuospatial neglect (VSN). In clinical practice, different degrees of impairment can be observed among patients with VSN; however, there is no consensus regarding the criteria and tests used to determine them.

aimThis study aims to classify patients with VSH based on their level of impairment and to study their response to computerized cognitive training. PATIENTS AND

methodsThe sample consisted of 34 patients (19 men and 15 women) with a mean age of 47.59 ± 8.39 years. All patients underwent a neuropsychological exploration protocol composed of specific tests that assess visuospatial attention and others to evaluate multiple cognitive domains. All participants underwent computerized cognitive training consisting of 15 one-hour sessions.

resultsA cluster analysis was performed that divided the sample into three groups: group 1: mildly affected VSN (n = 17), group 2: moderately affected VSN (n = 11), and group 3: severely affected VSN (n = 6). Statistically significant differences were found in all tests of the visuospatial attention protocol, both in the pre-treatment and post-treatment evaluation.

conclusionsThere are different levels of impairment among patients with VSN, differences that persist after applying computerized cognitive training. These results suggest that the evolution of VSN follows a homogeneous pattern linked to the initial level of impairment. These findings, although preliminary, may be relevant to neurorehabilitation professionals.
