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

backgroundVarious methods of rehabilitation for patients with neglect syndrome have been developed in cognitive neuropsychology. In contrast, this issue has not been a central focus in Luria's neuropsychological rehabilitation.

aimThe aim of this study is to provide a comparative analysis of A.R. Luria's methods for restoring higher mental functions (HMF) and existing approaches within the cognitive paradigm for rehabilitating patients with left-sided spatial neglect. These approaches will be evaluated based on concepts of "bottom-up" and "top-down" attention processes.

methodsThe search for studies was conducted in the electronic databases PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and eLIBRARY.RU for the period from 1984 to 2024. Sources were included in the review if they contained information on techniques for overcoming left-sided visual neglect and assessing their effectiveness. The review considered publications across all study designs.

resultsBased on an analysis of 56 publications, this study presents the first comparison between modern rehabilitation methods for left-sided neglect and A.R. Luria's methods for restoring HMF. This synthesis has enabled a refinement of the existing taxonomy of methods for restoring HMF, leading to the proposal of a novel methodology, which focuses on "expanding/correcting the capabilities of the leading afferentation of the functional system (directed correction)".

conclusionIt is evident that the extant methodologies for addressing left-sided visual neglect are deficient in terms of efficacy. The most efficacious methods are those aimed at restructuring the functional system and based on arbitrariness and mediation, which largely correlates with "top-down" attention processes.
