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

backgroundVirtual reality-based training has been widely used for post-stroke patients due to its positive effects on functional aspects by promoting brain plasticity.

objectiveThis study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of gait training with virtual reality-based real-time feedback on motor function, balance, and spatiotemporal gait parameters in post-stroke patients.

methodsFifteen patients (

resultsIn the group analyses, both groups showed significant improvements in motor function balance and gait ability. According to the pre- and post-treatment results, greater improvement in the Fugl-Meyer assessment (experimental group: 4.75 vs. control group: 1.57) was observed in the experimental group compared with the control group (

conclusionsThis study suggested the positive effects of the virtual reality-based real-time feedback with treadmill gait training on motor function, balance, and gait performance.
