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

objectiveIntracerebral haemorrhage significantly impacts patients' functional and motor recovery. Identifying predictive factors is crucial for enhancing post-intracerebral haemorrhage rehabilitation strategies. This study explores the predictors of functional improvement and motor recovery in intracerebral haemorrhage survivors.

designThis retrospective cohort study was conducted at a tertiary referral hospital, encompassing patients diagnosed with acute spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage from 1 June 2019, to 30 June 2023.

methodsData on clinical characteristics, activity-based indicators like the initial ability to sit independently without physical assistance and the ability to sit independently for 2 minutes, and haematoma location were analysed to determine their association with functional and motor recovery outcomes, assessed by the modified Rankin Scale, Barthel Index, and Brunnstrom stages.

resultsAmong 310 patients, significant predictors for functional outcomes included hypertension, the initial ability to sit independently without physical assistance, the initial ability to sit independently for 2 min, length of hospitalization, and initial National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS). For motor recovery, the initial ability to sit independently with-out physical assistance, the initial ability to sit independently for 2 min, 24-h NIHSS, and length of hospitalization were identified as strong predictors for Brunnstrom stage recovery of upper and lower limbs.

conclusionPredictive factors including hypertension, early NIHSS, the initial ability to sit independently without physical assistance, the initial ability to sit independently for 2 min, and length of hospitalization play a crucial role in predicting functional and motor recovery after intracerebral haemorrhage.
