ReviewSpinal cord2025
Empowering lives of people with SCI: unlocking the transformative potential of the World Health Assembly's resolution on rehabilitation - the 2024 ISCoS lecture.
Review in Spinal cord, 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.

designNarrative review.
objectivesTo summarize the key messages presented during the ISCoS lecture at the 63rd ISCoS Annual Meeting, focusing on the global rehabilitation landscape, particularly regarding spinal cord injury.
settingNot applicable.
methodsThe review starts by providing an overview of the World Health Organization (WHO) Rehabilitation 2030 initiative. It then describes how to bridge evidence with rehabilitation practice and the role of CochraneRehab.
resultsRehabilitation is contextualized within Rehabilitation 2030 and the World Health Assembly resolution on strengthening rehabilitation in health systems, highlighting significant policy shifts and technical tools developed by the WHO. The increase in global rehabilitation needs is outlined, citing estimates that nearly one-third of the global population could benefit from rehabilitation services. The role of CochraneRehab is discussed as a catalyst for enhancing primary research quality, evidence synthesis, and knowledge dissemination in rehabilitation. The review advocates for alternative study designs and innovative methodologies, including big data and artificial intelligence, to address persistent evidence gaps in spinal cord injury.
conclusionsIn this pivotal moment for global rehabilitation, all stakeholders must unite to implement the WHA resolution and advocate for quality rehabilitation services in health systems and high-quality, innovative research methods to address evidence gaps like those in spinal cord injury care. This requires generating and disseminating evidence-based interventions and overcoming the inherent challenges of implementing these changes in everyday clinical practice.
