Neurology and Cognitive Occupational Therapy Practice Across the Middle East and North Africa: An Exploratory Multicountry Cross-Sectional Survey.

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
Occupational therapy (OT) has a defined role in neurological and cognitive rehabilitation, yet empirical data describing how this role is enacted across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) are sparse, uneven across countries, and rarely drawn from multicountry samples. In a context of rapidly rising neurological disease burden across the region, the absence of workforce-level evidence directly constrains workforce planning, continuing-education design, and evidence-based practice (EBP) implementation. This exploratory cross-sectional online survey aimed to profile occupational therapists working in neurology and cognitive rehabilitation across 13 MENA countries (using the World Bank MENA + Turkey, or "MENAT", regional grouping). Licensed occupational therapists with at least 1 year of clinical practice were recruited between November 2023 and January 2024 through professional OT associations, networks and social media platforms. The content-validated questionnaire was administered using Google Forms. Analyses were descriptive with Wilson 95% confidence intervals; χ
