Investigation of independence in the tasks involving the use of public transportation in patients with subacute stroke.
Article in Journal of rehabilitation medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveTo clarify the percentage of stroke patients who are independent in performing tasks involved in public transportation use and problems faced while doing so.
designSingle-institution retrospective study. PATIENTS: A total of 237 post-stroke patients utilized public transportation during their hospitalization in subacute rehabilitation wards.
methodsParticipants' actual performance in 14 tasks involving public transportation use was assessed using the Public Transportation Use Assessment Form. For each task, the percentage of participants who could perform the task independently was calculated and identified performance problems were categorized.
resultsThe task with the lowest percentage of independent participants was "Walking in crowds", with 146 of 236 (61.9%) participants performing this independently, followed by "Selecting departure time and platform" (149 of 229, 65.1%), and "Getting on and off trains" (162 of 230, 70.4%). Problems faced when "Walking in crowds" included the "Risk of colliding with others" (n = 34), "Stopping abruptly" (n = 16), "Lack of attention to surroundings" (n = 14), and "Unable to walk with the flow of people" (n = 11).
conclusionA significant number of patients could not perform tasks independently and faced various performance problems. These issues should be addressed during rehabilitation to enable patients to use public transportation.
