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
Background: The aim of this study was to explore the factors associated with the ability to perform activities of daily living (ADL) among post-stroke patients participating in outpatient physical rehabilitation programmes in community hospital in southern Thailand. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, data were collected from 258 patients diagnosed with stroke through the HOSxP programme from 2018 to 2022. Patients' ADL were assessed using the Barthel Index measurement. Characteristics were described by percentages and medians (IOR). Associations of categorical variables were examined using the chi-squared test, and multiple logistic regressions were employed to identify factors predicting Barthel Index scores among stroke patients. Patients' capacity levels were categorised based on Barthel Index scores and rehabilitation criteria, and unadjusted and adjusted odds ratios (OR/AOR) were presented, with a significance level of 0.05. Results: Of the 258 stroke patients, 59.30% were male, with a median age of 67 years old. Significant differences in Barthel Index scores were found with respect to gender, age, marital status, comorbidities and duration of rehabilitation ( Conclusion: Several factors contribute to the effective planning of care and rehabilitation for stroke patients in rural area. Stroke rehabilitation programmes in this region should consider various elements, including patient characteristics, family involvement and clinical factors, to improve ADL performance.
