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
Takarada H, Honke T. Short-term effects of goal setting by rehabilitation professionals on aspects of psychology: a non-randomized controlled trial involving recovering stroke survivors. Jpn J Compr Rehabil Sci 2025; 16: 1-8. Objective: In rehabilitation, goals expected to have an effect on aspects of psychology, such as promoting participation in the program and reducing anxiety, are set between the patient and the therapist. This study aimed to compare and test the short-term effects of goal setting on such psychological aspects in an experimental group, in which the therapist selected the highest priority goals proposed by the patient, and a control group, in which the goals were proposed by the therapist. Methods: Between October 2023 and March 2024, 88 stroke survivors were admitted to the Kaifukuki Rehabilitation Ward, of whom 32 met the inclusion criteria. The patients were divided into two groups: a goal-setting group in which the patient chose the highest priority goal (experimental group: Results: Outcomes improved in both groups after goal setting. Between-group comparisons showed a significant improvement in treatment engagement in the experimental group ( Conclusion: In the short term, treatment engagement was influenced by the patient's consideration and choice of priority goals.
