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

Introduction: Individuals with systemic sclerosis experience difficulties in perceived occupational performance and satisfaction in daily life activities, largely due to the various symptoms associated with the disease. Methods: Twenty-nine individuals with systemic sclerosis participated in the study. Occupational performance and satisfaction levels were evaluated before and after the program were performed using the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure. The self-management program, guided by the COPM activities, was tailored to the patients' needs and informed by relevant literature. The program consisted of eight sessions over 8 weeks, with one 45-minute session per week. Results: A statistically significant increase was found in Canadian Occupational Performance Measure performance and satisfaction scores before and after the guided training ( Conclusion: The self-management program delivered via telerehabilitation positively impacted the perceived occupational performance and satisfaction of individuals with systemic sclerosis. It is believed that self-management intervention can be effectively used to enhance the occupational performance and satisfaction of these individuals.
