Diagnosis of spatial neglect and rehabilitation access for stroke survivors.
Article in Cogent gerontology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Spatial neglect in stroke survivors is associated with a decrease in quality of life. This disorder occurs in 20-80% of stroke survivors and up to 1/3 of stroke survivors will continue to experience chronic impairment. Occupational therapists are uniquely qualified to treat stroke survivors with spatial neglect due to their holistic approach but access to therapy is limited. Diagnostic coding is used to help determine appropriate reimbursement and continuation of care including rehabilitation services. The objectives of this study were to 1) identify the prevalence of diagnostic coding for spatial neglect in stroke survivors, and 2) identify the prevalence and types of rehabilitation for patients with diagnostic coding for spatial neglect. We completed a retrospective cohort analysis using 2018 and 2019 5% Medicare Limited Data Sets from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. We extracted all ischemic stroke survivors and stratified them by the presence of a secondary diagnostic code indicating spatial neglect. Rehabilitation Current Procedural Terminology codes were used to identify stroke survivors who received rehabilitation. Despite recommendations from clinical practice, only 4.9% had a diagnostic code for spatial neglect. Of those formally diagnosed, only 2.3% received outpatient occupational therapy after being discharged from acute care.
