Investigation of the effect of task-oriented occupational therapy on daily living activity performance in chronic stroke patients.
Article in Pakistan journal of medical sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07578948 (Comparative Effects of Task Oriented Progressive Resistance Training and Modified Otago Exercise on Balance and Lower Limb Motor Function Among Stroke Patients.), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
Objective: Task-oriented therapy (TOT) is used to increase the effectiveness of upper extremity (UE) in activity daily living (ADL). This study aimed to investigate the effect of TOT on the participation and ADLs of stroke patients. Methods: Between October 2018 and February 2019, 28 chronic stroke patients were included in the study treated in Kocaeli University Hospital, Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Turkey. The performance areas and participation status of the patients in which they experienced limitations were evaluated with the Canadian Occupational Performance Scale (COPM), and their level of independence in ADLs was evaluated with the Modified Frenchay Activity Index (mFAI) and Barthel Index (BI). All patients were included in the occupational therapy (OT) program five days a week for three weeks at Kocaeli University Hospital. Three ADLs in which they had difficulties were studied with 28 patients. Each of the activities was designed specifically for the patient. All assessments were repeated after three weeks of treatment. Results: A total of 28 patients, 12 females and 16 males, diagnosed with stroke, were included in the study. A statistically significant increase was found in the COPM performance and satisfaction value compared to the pre-treatment value (p<0.001). A statistically significant difference was found between pre- and post-treatment mFAI and BI values (p<0.001). Conclusions: Adding task-oriented therapy to the rehabilitation programs of stroke patients will contribute to the improvement of ADL.
