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
Objective: The aim of this study was to examine the effects of an intensive, multidisciplinary, inpatient rehabilitation program on the functional outcomes of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), admitted directly from home. Design: Retrospective cohort study. Setting: Suburban academic medical center with an inpatient rehabilitation facility. Methods: The study included 37 patients with PD who participated in a two-week acute inpatient multidisciplinary rehabilitation program. Functional assessments utilizing the Activity Measure for Post-Acute Care (AM-PAC), Section GG of the Inpatient Rehabilitation Facility-Patient Assessment Inventory (Section GG scores), and Voice Handicap Index (VHI) were collected and compared upon admission and discharge from the program. Results: Significant improvements were observed in the AM-PAC domains of Basic Mobility and Daily Activity between admission and discharge ( Conclusions: Intensive inpatient rehabilitation programs have the potential to enhance both physical functioning and speech and vocal abilities in patients with PD. This study is the first of its kind in the United States, demonstrating the safety and efficacy of a multidisciplinary acute inpatient rehabilitation program designed to enhance the functional outcomes of individuals with PD living at home.
