Description of an App-Based Telerehabilitation Platform After Stroke in India (ATTEND-2) Using the Template for Intervention Description and Replication (TIDieR) Checklist.
Article in Cureus, 2026. 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
Stroke rehabilitation in India is challenged by shortages of rehabilitation professionals and limited access to structured post-discharge care, particularly in rural settings. Although family-led rehabilitation approaches have demonstrated feasibility in increasing therapy engagement, there remains a need for scalable systems that support continuity, monitoring, and accessibility of rehabilitation services. ATTEND-2 was developed as a culturally contextualized, app-based telerehabilitation platform to support post-stroke upper limb rehabilitation in resource-constrained settings. This study aimed to describe the ATTEND-2 intervention using the Template for Intervention Description and Replication (TIDieR) checklist. The intervention was systematically developed through stakeholder engagement involving stroke survivors, caregivers, physiotherapists, neurologists, and software developers. The updated Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) domains were applied to characterize implementation determinants influencing adoption and scalability within the Indian health system. The resulting intervention supports remote supervision, structured exercise prescription, and adherence monitoring within Indian home environments. CFIR-guided analysis identified key facilitators for scalability, including adaptability across urban and rural settings, compatibility with task-sharing approaches, and alignment with India's evolving digital health ecosystem. ATTEND-2 represents an evidence-informed telerehabilitation intervention designed to strengthen access to post-stroke upper limb rehabilitation. Structured reporting using TIDieR-telehealth and CFIR enhances transparency, reproducibility, and future feasibility and effectiveness evaluation.
