Effect of Chest Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation on the Respiratory Status of Post-stroke Survivor: A Systematic Review.
Review in Cureus, 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
Respiratory complications are one of those complications that can determine a patient's prognosis in the acute state and are a commonly neglected complication in the chronic state. Respiratory complications can range from improper ventilation profusion to thick copious secretion which can slow the prognosis. Respiratory complications need to be addressed in order to ensure a good ventilation perfusion and in the long run increase the patient's quality of life. Chest physiotherapy helps in centralizing the secretions and aids in the removal of the secretions. There are many conventional techniques to aid the betterment of the respiratory position such as chest percussion, vibration, and shaking. The purpose of this study was to find the effectiveness of chest proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) in improving the pulmonary complications of post-stroke patients. The following articles have reviewed a more advanced technique to help remove secretion and increase vital capacity. All the reviewed articles used the chest PNF techniques and their variations as they provide tactile stimulus to lead to muscle contraction.
