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

Background and objectives: This case report investigates the application of intermittent Theta-Burst Stimulation (iTBS) in aphasia rehabilitation following a right hemisphere stroke. Case presentation: A 52-year-old Chinese male with Broca's aphasia post-stroke was treated with iTBS. His progress was evaluated using Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) and behavioral assessments. Significant language function improvement was noted, with fNIRS showing increased activation in right hemisphere language-related cortical areas and altered functional connectivity patterns. Conclusion: The findings indicate that iTBS is effective in facilitating language recovery in right hemisphere stroke-induced aphasia, highlighting the importance of personalized neurorehabilitation strategies. Despite focusing on a single case, the study contributes to understanding neural plasticity mechanisms in right hemisphere stroke-induced aphasia.
