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

objectiveTo evaluate the satisfaction, effectiveness, and usability of a telerehabilitation programme for Parkinson's disease (PD) patients.

designProspective cohort study. SUBJECTS/PATIENTS: PD patients based on the diagnostic criteria for clinically established or probable PD published by the International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society.

methodsThe telerehabilitation was conducted twice a week via a Zoom meeting platform, using pre-recorded rehabilitation contents shared during the sessions. In this study we administered several questionnaires, i.e., a self-report questionnaire on the effectiveness of telerehabilitation, the Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire-39 (PDQ-39), and the Telehealth Usability Questionnaire (TUQ), in order to evaluate the satisfaction, effectiveness, and usability of our telerehabilitation programme.

resultsFifty-six PD patients were included in the analysis. After 6 months, 91.1% expressed satisfaction with the telerehabilitation and 91.9% reported telerehabilitation had helped them develop an exercise routine, but the PDQ-39 showed no significant improvement in quality of life. The TUQ showed higher scores for Usefulness (76.1%), Ease of Use and Learnability (73.5%), Interface Quality (75.4%), and Satisfaction and Future Use (82.2%).

conclusionSatisfaction with telerehabilitation was high, particularly with regard to positive effects on emotional well-being. Telerehabilitation usability was also found to be high.
