Scope of rehabilitation for patients with long COVID symptoms in Bangladesh.
Article in Frontiers in rehabilitation sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: The Bangladeshi healthcare system had planned to meet the long-term rehabilitation needs of people who had suffered due to COVID, as well as those whose health and level of activity had declined during the COVID pandemic. The goal is to apply the COVID-19 Yorkshire Rehabilitation Scale (C-YRS) to ascertain the number of health domains in which a person with PCS should undergo rehabilitation. Methods: We carried out a quantitative cross-sectional study. The eight administrative divisions provided the pool of participants for selecting the 409 people comprised by the stratified sampling. We collected data using a semi-structured questionnaire that included sociodemographics, a symptoms checklist, and the C-YRS. Results: The most common post-COVID symptoms among the participants were fatigue (34.3%), muscle pain (20%), and dyspnea (12.2%). The comparison between pre- and postinfection symptoms revealed a notable increase in symptom severity and functional impairments. The study also found a significant relationship between symptom severity and place of residence ( Conclusion: Severity phenotypes can aid in the stratification of people with PCS for targeted therapies and rehabilitation care planning.
