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

Depressive symptoms (DS) after stroke are associated with marked negative consequences for rehabilitation. Identifying determinants of DS is needed to enable prediction and develop psychological interventions. A promising candidate may be self-concept and changes thereof, so-called self-discrepancy. Consulting recent self-concept models, we investigated the role of self-concept subdomains and their individual importance. Within a prospective longitudinal study, 120 stroke survivors were interviewed via telephone 3 years post-ictus to assess present and past self-concept, self-discrepancy, self-concept subdomains and DS. The association of self-concept measures and DS was investigated using an ANCOVA. Controlling for established determinants (age, sex, history of depression, functional independence, social support), multiple regression analyses were used to examine the independent influence of self-concept measures and the role of subdomains and importance-weightings. Self-discrepancy showed a significant interaction with DS (F (1, 118) = 32.69, p < .001, η
