Utilization of Robot-Assisted Gait Training in Pulmonary Rehabilitation for a Patient with Ambulatory Dysfunction Post-Severe COVID-19 Pneumonia: A Case Report.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 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
backgroundSevere COVID-19 can lead to a decline in pulmonary and physical functions simultaneously. Patients experiencing significant ambulatory dysfunction often face restrictions in participating in gait training, resulting in insufficient benefits from cardiopulmonary rehabilitation. This underscores the need for tailored rehabilitation approaches that address their specific conditions.
methodThis study presents a case examining the impact of combining pulmonary rehabilitation with robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) on pulmonary and physical functions in a patient with severe COVID-19 pneumonia. A 56-year-old male patient with severe COVID-19 pneumonia exhibited impaired pulmonary function, reduced lower extremity strength, compromised balance, and significant limitations in functional ambulation. He underwent an inpatient pulmonary rehabilitation program combined with RAGT for 5 weeks, participating in 30 min RAGT sessions a total of 22 times. The patient showed improvements in his pulmonary function, lower extremity strength, balance, exercise capacity, and functional mobility, along with a reduction in symptoms such as dyspnea and fatigue.
conclusionsThe combination of RAGT with pulmonary rehabilitation is a treatment method that can be applied without complications and has the potential to improve pulmonary and physical functions in patients with ambulatory dysfunction due to COVID-19.
