Evolving rehabilitation needs across the lifespan: a mixed methods study with adults with cerebral palsy.
Article in Disability and rehabilitation, 2026. 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
purposeUnderstand and describe the rehabilitation needs of adults with cerebral palsy (CP) who recently established adult-based physiatric care, and how these needs have changed over time. MATERIALS AND
methodsIn this convergent mixed-methods study, qualitative data were collected using semi-structured interviews with adults with CP, caregivers, and dyads of adults with CP and caregivers to explore the rehabilitation needs of adults with CP. Quantitative data were collected through retrospective review of electronic health record data from patients with CP aged ≥18 years who had been seen in the adult CP clinic at least once since April 2022.
resultsWe conducted 21 interviews with 27 participants (7 adults with CP, 10 caregivers, 5 dyads) and included 73 adults with CP in quantitative data extraction. We identified three qualitative themes and integrated these with quantitative findings related to rehabilitation and healthcare needs. Themes identified included: 1) The importance of therapy access throughout the lifespan; 2) Changes in and variety of equipment needs in adulthood; and 3) Evolving rehabilitation needs and goals.
conclusionsRehabilitation professionals play an important role in the ongoing care of adults with CP, including ensuring access to rehabilitative therapies, evaluating changing equipment needs, and supporting changing health-related goals.
