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

Background: Post-stroke rehabilitation exercise is recognized as the most effective and preferred intervention to reduce disability rates in patients. However, adherence to exercise is low among stroke patients. Previous research has mainly focused on the negative psychological factors influencing adherence, while the positive psychological aspects remain underexplored. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the factors influencing adherence to rehabilitation exercises in acute stroke patients, especially the positive psychological factors, in order to reduce the disability rate of stroke. Methods: From October 2023 to March 2024, a total of 227 patients with acute stroke were selected from a Grade-A hospital in Chongqing, China, using total sampling method. The patients' general demographic data, Stroke Functional Exercise Adherence Questionnaire Scale (EAQ), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HAD), and Index of Subjective Well-Being Scale (IWB) were assessed. ANOVA, Results: The total score for rehabilitation exercise adherence in acute stroke patients was 38.41 ± 11.13, corresponding to a mean adherence rate of 68.6%. Factors influencing adherence to rehabilitation exercise in acute stroke patients were identified, including age ( Conclusion: Adherence to rehabilitation exercises in acute stroke patients was found to be medium. Our findings highlight that age, presence of ICU stay, and NIHSS score were found to have negative correlations with adherence. While a positive correlation was observed with subjective well-being.
