Application of electromyographic biofeedback therapy in physical dysfunction rehabilitation and post-stroke anxiety reduction in stroke survivors.

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
backgroundStroke is a leading cause of long-term disability worldwide, and limb motor dysfunction is one of the most common complications affecting the quality of life of patients.
aimTo investigate the rehabilitation effects of conventional rehabilitation training combined with electromyographic biofeedback therapy on limb motor dysfunction in stroke survivors.
methodsThis observational retrospective cohort study included 60 stroke survivors who underwent post-stroke rehabilitation training in the rehabilitation department of Qilu Hospital of Shandong University (Qingdao) from May 2023 to July 2024. The medical records of the patients were assessed. Eligible patients (
resultsAt 4 weeks and 8 weeks post-treatment, the biofeedback group showed significantly better Fugl-Meyer assessment scores, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale scores, Hamilton Depression Rating Scale scores, Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale scores, and wrist and ankle active range of motion scores than the control group.
conclusionElectromyographic biofeedback therapy combined with conventional rehabilitation can effectively improve upper and lower limb motor function, balance ability, activities of daily living, wrist extension, and ankle dorsiflexion dysfunction in patients post-stroke, with better efficacy than conventional rehabilitation alone.
