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

objectiveDeficits in online self-awareness (SA) are common after acquired brain injury (ABI), leading to safety concerns and impacting daily activities and rehabilitation outcomes. Early identification is recommended as a critical first step in cognitive rehabilitation following ABI. The aim of this observational study was to examine differences in online SA and strategy use between individuals with ABI and healthy controls. It also investigated whether online SA moderates the relationship between strategy use and performance accuracy on a test designed to assess cognitive-functional deficits.

method80 individuals with ABI and 76 controls completed the Spanish Weekly Calendar Planning Activity-10. Measures of online SA included strategy use and self-recognized errors assessed during task. An after-task interview assessed individuals' self-evaluation of task difficulty and accuracy of performance.

resultsIndividuals with ABI performed worse than controls on most measures of online SA. They were less likely to self-recognize errors and use self-monitoring strategies. They also tended to overestimate their performance and showed greater discrepancy between self-rated and actual performance. Moderation analyses show that better performance was significantly associated with greater strategy use among ABI individuals who were aware of their performance.

conclusionsOnline SA appears to moderate the use of cognitive strategies during functional cognitive performance after ABI. Therefore, it is important to include assessments of online SA and strategy use for individuals with ABI. Furthermore, these findings highlight the importance of focusing on SA and self-generated strategies as key goals of cognitive rehabilitation aimed at improving daily functioning after ABI.
