Assessment of Health-Related Quality of Life of Stroke Survivors in Southeast Communities in Nigeria.
Article in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The prevalence of stroke in Nigeria has continued to be a major public health challenge. Recovery from a stroke episode can be a long-impacting process with reduced quality of life outcomes. Past studies have explored the quality of life (QoL) of stroke survivors. However, none have explored the QoL of stroke survivors in Southeastern Nigeria. This study therefore describes the QoL of Nigerian stroke survivors in Southeastern Nigeria. One hundred and one participants (44 male and 58 female) were recruited into the study. QoL domains were assessed using the stroke-specific Health-Related Quality of Life in Stroke Patients (HRQOLISP). The physical domain was significantly lower than other domains measured (mean = 2.52, SD = 0.76), contributing to poor quality of life. On the other hand, the spiritual domain had the greatest positive influence on QoL (mean = 3.70, SD = 0.50). We found the physical domain was the poorest part of stroke survivors' stroke experience. The spiritual domain had a positive impact on improving QoL. There is a need for research on interventions relating to the physical rehabilitation of stroke survivors and a review of how the spiritual domain can be enhanced to improve QoL.
