Postoperative Functional Recovery and Rehabilitation Following Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy.
Review in Advances and technical standards in neurosurgery, 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
Selective dorsal rhizotomy (SDR) has been practiced for many years; however, standardization of processes such as the surgical technique and rehabilitation protocols are only relatively recent phenomenon. Comparing data from various studies can be limited due to temporal changes in practice, different selection criteria for SDR, the heterogeneity of cerebral palsy and variable rehabilitation protocols. This chapter reviews the available evidence in relation to best practice for rehabilitation following SDR and explores factors affecting the short- and long-term outcome following SDR. This includes more easily measurable factors, such as the child's preoperative Gross Motor Function Measurement (GMFM) and severity of spasticity, to social and cognitive factors which can affect participation in rehabilitation.
