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

ObjectiveThe aims of this study were to characterise proprioceptive impairment in individuals after stroke using the Wrist Position Sense Test (WPST) in a relatively large pooled sample, to re-establish the criterion of abnormality of the WPST, and to determine the sensitivity and specificity of a briefer test version for use in clinical settings.DesignCross-sectional observation study with pooling of data across studies.SettingRehabilitation or outpatient settings.SubjectsStroke survivors (n = 205) and neurologically healthy controls (n = 93) were assessed at baseline.Main measureWrist proprioception assessed using the WPST.MethodsBaseline data from stroke survivors and healthy controls assessed on the WPST was extracted from six studies. Raw data were pooled and analysed to determine an updated criterion of impairment and ability of a brief 10-trial version to detect proprioceptive impairment.ResultsProprioceptive impairment was common for the contralesional wrist (66%) and present in the ipsilesional wrist (21%). The new criterion of abnormality was established as 11.1
