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

objectiveThis paper aims to assess the clinical effectiveness of an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS)-based care bundle in facilitating early rehabilitation in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS).

methodsA total of 120 AIS patients were randomly assigned to either a control group (n = 60), receiving routine nursing care, or an experimental group (n = 60), which received additional ERAS-guided bundled care. Outcome measures included neurological function [NIH Stroke Scale (NIHSS), modified Rankin Scale (mRS)], limb strength (Lovett scale), language ability [Boston Diagnostic Aphasia Examination (BDAE)], swallowing function [Water Swallow Test (WST)], psychological status [Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD), Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAMA)], and quality of life [Stroke-Specific Quality of Life Scale (SS-QOL)]. Incidence of adverse events was also recorded.

resultsPost-intervention, NIHSS and mRS scores declined more markedly in the experimental group than in the control group (P < 0.05). The experimental group had a higher number of patients with Lovett muscle strength grade 4, BDAE grades 4 and 5, and WST grade 1 compared to the control group (P < 0.05). The HAMD and HAMA scores in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The experimental group also had lower adverse event rate compared to the control group (P < 0.05).

conclusionAn ERAS-based care bundle can significantly enhance early functional recovery, mitigate psychological distress, and reduce complications in AIS patients, supporting its clinical applicability in stroke rehabilitation.
