Applications of Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) Neuroimaging During Rehabilitation Following Stroke: A Review.
Review in Medical science monitor : international medical journal of experimental and clinical research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 21 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
Stroke is a cerebrovascular disease that impairs blood supply to localized brain tissue regions due to various causes. This leads to ischemic and hypoxic lesions, necrosis of the brain tissue, and a variety of functional disorders. Abnormal cortical activation and functional connectivity occur in the brain after a stroke, but the activation patterns and functional reorganization are not well understood. Rehabilitation interventions can enhance functional recovery in stroke patients. However, clinicians require objective measures to support their practice, as outcome measures for functional recovery are based on scale scores. Furthermore, the most effective rehabilitation measures for treating patients are yet to be investigated. Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is a non-invasive neuroimaging method that detects changes in cerebral hemodynamics during task performance. It is widely used in neurological research and clinical practice due to its safety, portability, high motion tolerance, and low cost. This paper briefly introduces the imaging principle and the advantages and disadvantages of fNIRS to summarize the application of fNIRS in post-stroke rehabilitation.
