Recovery from Post-Traumatic Amnesia During Inpatient Rehabilitation: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

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
backgroundTraumatic brain injury (TBI) is a global healthcare problem, and post-traumatic amnesia (PTA) is a known predictor of long-term and societal outcomes. However, factors influencing PTA recovery during the inpatient rehabilitation phase remain underexplored, particularly in Asian populations.
objectiveTo identify factors associated with PTA duration and emergence during inpatient rehabilitation and examine their impact on functional outcomes. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe conducted a retrospective, single-center cohort study over a 7-year period among patients with acute TBI who were admitted to an inpatient rehabilitation hospital. Outcomes included PTA emergence and duration, discharge Functional Independence Measure (FIM), rehabilitation length of stay, and Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) at ≥1 year.
resultsA total of 100 patients were analyzed. In an adjusted Cox regression, age ≥ 55 years (Hazard Ratio [HR] 0.47) and non-infective medical complications during rehabilitation (HR 0.31) were associated with reduced likelihood of PTA emergence, while mild admission GCS (13-15; HR 4.80) and epidural hemorrhage (EDH) (HR 2.00) were associated with PTA emergence. PTA non-emergence was associated with approximately a 20-point lower discharge FIM total score (adjusted model,
conclusionBoth acute injury characteristics and intra-rehabilitation factors were associated with PTA recovery functional outcomes. PTA emergence, beyond PTA duration, was strongly associated with discharge functional status and long-term global outcome, supporting the clinical value of PTA in prognostication, rehabilitation planning, and goal setting.
