Interventions in subacute paediatric inpatient neurorehabilitation: an umbrella review.
Synthesis in Journal of rehabilitation medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundRehabilitation is vital for optimizing recovery following neurological injuries. However, much of what is done for the paediatric population relies heavily on the adult literature or is based on expert opinion. No previous attempt has been made to collate high-quality evidence pertaining to the subacute period.
objectivesTo summarize and appraise the evidence from systematic reviews regarding the efficacy of inpatient neurorehabilitation interventions for paediatric patients in the 6 months immediately following neurological injury.
methodA systematic search was conducted of PubMed, Ovid Medline, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Embase, and Cochrane databases, as well as using Google Scholar. Selection required an appraisal of efficacy of an inpatient rehabilitation intervention delivered within 6 months of injury.
results1,250 papers were found. Titles and abstracts were compared against the selection criteria, with 52 papers being selected for full-text review. None of these met the selection criteria. Exclusions were often due to setting and chronicity.
conclusionsThis review reveals a critical lack of systematically reviewed evidence within the scope investigated. There is a pressing need for evaluation of current interventions. In the future, alternative approaches to identifying and appraising different forms of available evidence could be considered.
