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: Stroke often leads to long-term effects on daily activities and participation. Consequences impact not only stroke survivors but also their close networks, and capturing their experiences is crucial for the development of effective interventions. F@ce 2.0 is a person-centered, information and communication technology (ICT)-supported stroke rehabilitation intervention currently being evaluated. Objective: This study aims to describe family members' experiences of the F@ce 2.0 intervention from the perspective of being a caregiver to a stroke survivor. Methods: Participants were family members (n=7) of stroke survivors participating in the intervention. Semistructured interviews were conducted at 2 time points, postintervention and 6 months postbaseline, resulting in a total of 13 interviews. Data was analyzed using qualitative inductive content analysis. Results: An overarching theme was developed from 4 categories. The main theme was the potential of F@ce 2.0 as a support for family members of stroke survivors in the sudden change of life. The categories were: dialogue and partnership with the F@ce 2.0 team, resuming daily activities lowers the demand for family support, support and involvement through the ICT component of F@ce 2.0, and engagement in F@ce 2.0, leading to suggestions for development. Conclusions: This study aligns with previous research delineating the effects of stroke on family members of stroke survivors. Participants highlighted the positive impact of the focus on daily activities within the intervention. Furthermore, the ICT component was perceived as a support in structuring rehabilitation. Participants, however, suggested further development, both in terms of content and technology.
