Intensive, Multi-Technology Rehabilitation Programme for Chronic Stroke Survivors: Outcomes of a Phase I Single-Arm Repeated-Measures Study.
Article in Physiotherapy research international : the journal for researchers and clinicians in physical therapy, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06787768 (User Experience of a Technology Based Rehabilitation Programme), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
backgroundEffective rehabilitation interventions are needed to support recovery in people living with long-term post-stroke disability. Cocreation has been proposed as a method for enhancing the acceptability of technology-supported rehabilitation and may improve rehabilitation outcomes.
objectiveTo observe changes in outcome following participation in a multi-technology rehabilitation intervention for motor recovery in people with chronic stroke and to explore factors associated with differential response.
designPre-post, single-arm intervention study.
methodsParticipants with stroke ≥ 12 months previously and persistent motor impairment, completed an 8-week, group-based circuit class incorporating multiple rehabilitation technologies. Standardised measures of activity and participation were collected at baseline, pre-intervention, and post-intervention.
resultsSixty-seven participants (mean age 60.49 ± 14.44 years; mean 41.87 ± 41.31 months post-stroke) were enroled and 59 (88.06%) completed a mean of 18.52 ± 6.44 sessions. Eight did not complete, mainly due to transport or illness. Statistically significant (p < 0.05) changes from pre-to post-intervention were observed across all outcomes. Subgroup analysis showed that participants with poorer balance, upper-limb function and global disability at baseline showed greater pre-post improvements than higher-functioning participants.
conclusionsImprovements in mobility and global function were observed following participation in a cocreated, multi-technology group rehabilitation programme for people with chronic stroke. Greater pre-post improvements were observed among participants with greater initial disability. These preliminary findings need confirmation in controlled studies.
