Technologies for the three-dimensional assessment and treatment of unilateral spatial neglect in individuals with stroke: a systematic review.

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
Unilateral spatial neglect (USN) is a failure to respond or orient to stimuli in contralesional space, not explained by primary sensory or motor deficits. It affects up to two-thirds of right hemisphere stroke survivors and significantly impacts rehabilitation and functional outcomes. Recent advances in three-dimensional (3D) technologies, such as virtual reality (VR) and robotics, offer promising tools for assessment and treatment, providing realistic scenarios and precise clinical stimulation. This systematic review explores the current use of 3D technologies in USN, focusing on their features, level of development, and reported outcomes. A structured search of four databases using the PICO format identified 37 relevant studies out of 2891. The most frequently employed technologies were immersive and non-immersive VR, augmented and mixed reality, and robotics. However, these tools are still in early experimental phases. Among the studies, 15 addressed assessment, 17 focused on treatment, and 5 were technical in nature. Key challenges include methodological variability and the lack of standardized protocols. Due to the heterogeneity of technologies and outcomes, a meta-analysis was not feasible. Future studies should adopt rigorous designs to validate these approaches and support their integration into clinical practice.
