Caregiver determinants and capacity for participation in constraint-induced movement therapy.

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.
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
Aim: Hemiplegic cerebral palsy affects 1 in every 1,100 children, making it the most common pediatric motor disability. Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) is an evidence-based intervention that significantly improves upper extremity function when implemented with high fidelity. Despite its effectiveness, CIMT's intensive nature-requiring daily therapy for up to twenty days-limits its availability. This study examined caregivers' perspectives on implementing and adapting home-based CIMT to identify practical solutions for improving intervention accessibility. Method: Caregivers of a child who has a diagnosis associated with upper extremity motor impairment consistent with cerebral palsy were recruited from the Cerebral Palsy Center at the St. Louis Children's Hospital. Caregivers completed a semi-structured interview to share their CIMT experiences, as well as their ideas and opinions related to modified versions of CIMT. All interviews were coded and analyzed for themes using descriptive analysis. Results: Twelve interviews were conducted and revealed that caregivers would be interested in CIMT with an at-home model. Those who had experience with CIMT stated they found meaningful results from their participation in CIMT. Caregivers communicated potential challenges such as their child remaining engaged in at-home therapy, caregiver confidence in implementing the therapy, and the time required for implementing caregiver-led, home-based CIMT. Interpretation: Study findings identified that caregivers see value in a modified, at-home CIMT program. Developing a modified version of CIMT is needed to increase access to this beneficial intervention.
