Need and utilization of rehabilitation services in children with cerebral palsy at a referral hospital in Peru: a descriptive study.
Article in Revista peruana de medicina experimental y salud publica, 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
With the objective of describing the characteristics and comparing the need with the previous utilization of rehabilitation services in children with cerebral palsy at a referral hospital in Peru, a descriptive study was conducted through the review of medical records of 86 patients treated during 2024. It was found that 41.8% did not attend any educational institution and 44.2% did not have a disability certificate; among those who had one, the mean time to obtain it was 4.9 years. Less than half had a pelvic radiograph, despite hip dislocation being a frequent comorbidity. Although the majority required rehabilitation therapies, their coverage was limited, especially in occupational therapy and speech/swallowing therapy. Likewise, more than half of those who required botulinum toxin had not received it. These findings demonstrate significant discrepancies between the need and previous utilization of rehabilitation services in this population.
