Impact of intensive, multidisciplinary neurorehabilitation on functional independence following pediatric acquired brain injury (ABI): A matched cohort study.

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
PurposeThe purpose of this matched cohort study was to determine the impact of intensive, multidisciplinary neurorehabilitation on functional independence following pediatric acquired brain injury.MethodsCohorts receiving lower-intensity (n = 19) and higher-intensity multidisciplinary neurorehabilitation (n = 19) were matched on age, injury characteristics, and admission functional status. Intensity was measured by time in physical, occupational (OT), and speech therapy over length of stay (LOS). Outcome measures included WeeFIM efficiency, WeeFIM developmental functional quotients (DFQs), and LOS.ResultsThere were no significant between-cohort findings in 1) WeeFIM efficiency, 2) WeeFIM DFQs or 3) LOS. There was a significant difference between admission and discharge WeeFIM DFQs for all participants (p < 0.001), demonstrating significant functional recovery regardless of intensity. Hierarchical linear regressions were significant for OT intensity and discharge WeeFIM DFQs (
