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

The automated assessment of home-based rehabilitation benefits from skeleton-based methods, which provide a robust and privacy-preserving means of monitoring patient movements. While such approaches effectively capture local body pose and spatial joint configurations, they often fall short in modeling the complete temporal coherence of an entire exercise sequence. To address this limitation, we construct a novel cascaded framework that combines a Spatio-Temporal Graph Convolutional Network (ST-GCN) for capturing local joint dynamics with a Transformer-based attention mechanism to model global, long-range dependencies. Evaluated on the UI-PRMD and KIMORE datasets under a rigorous 5-fold cross-validation protocol with independent test sets, STGA-Net achieved mean accuracies of 92.71% and 95.24%, respectively, surpassing existing state-of-the-art methods. These results demonstrate its strong potential as a quantitative and privacy-preserving tool for personalized rehabilitation assessment in both clinical and home settings.
