1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundResearch has demonstrated that adults post-stroke may experience sensory impairments across different sensory systems. There is a gap in research describing how sensory changes after stroke affect participation in health promoting activities.

objectivesThe purpose of this study is to understand how changes in sensory health after stroke affect participation in meaningful activities.

methodsWe adopted a qualitative phenomenological design to conduct four focus groups with ten participants: two focus groups with a cohort of adults post-stroke (

resultsParticipants reported changes in their visual, vestibular, proprioceptive, olfactory, gustatory, tactile, and auditory systems that affected their participation in meaningful activities. Participants also reported that they experienced insufficient resources and therapies addressing their sensory health after their stroke. Analyses yielded the following themes:(1) it's hidden and invisible;(2) sensory changes affect participation and can be overwhelming; and (3) it's easy to stay inside: sensory changes negatively affect social participation.

conclusionsAdults post-stroke experience sensory changes that restrict their participation in meaningful activities including social activities; however, these changes were often missed. More research is needed to further explore the impact of changes in sensory health and understand needs regarding the development of assessment tools and intervention protocols to address the sensory health of adults post-stroke in the clinic, home, and community.
