Network analysis of rehabilitation needs and influencing factors in aged patients recovering from first-time stroke.
Article in Frontiers in neurology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: To explore the rehabilitation needs and influencing factors in aged patients recovering from cerebral infarction. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted from July to December 2025, selecting 436 aged patients recovering from their first cerebral infarction in the neurology department of a top-tier hospital in Anhui Province. The survey included general information, and scales for the following: stroke rehabilitation needs, the Barthel Index (ADL scale), social support, and self-efficacy. Results: The average rehabilitation needs score was 140.60 ± 29.806. The key rehabilitation needs identified were assistance with putting on and taking off clothes and shoes (rs = 1.256), swallowing function training (rs = 1.221), support for feelings of inferiority (rs = 1.208), personal hygiene help (rs = 1.200), and understanding of the discharge follow-up plan (rs = 1.197). Network analysis showed that self-care ability, social support, and self-efficacy significantly impacted rehabilitation needs. Discussion: In older adults recovering from their first-ever ischemic stroke, rehabilitation needs are closely connected. The central need is assistance with dressing, including putting on and taking off clothes and shoes. These needs are shaped by multiple factors, such as lesion location on the right side, early participation in rehabilitation, self-care ability, self-efficacy, and social support, all of which play key roles. Therefore, rehabilitation interventions should consider both patients' specific needs and the factors that influence them. Tailored, precise care can better address their rehabilitation needs and enhance their quality of life.
