Early Inpatient Rehabilitation Following Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder Flare: A Case Report.
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
Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a rare autoimmune demyelinating disease primarily affecting the central nervous system. Relapsing NMOSD flares can result in severe functional decline, including paraplegia and vision loss. We present a 46-year-old woman admitted to an acute inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) following a clinically suspected NMOSD flare triggered by aspiration pneumonia. During a two-week admission, the patient demonstrated significant improvement in activities of daily living (ADLs) and Section GG functional scores with a multidisciplinary rehabilitation program consisting of approximately three hours of therapy per day over five days. This case highlights the potential role of early, intensive inpatient rehabilitation following a clinically suspected NMOSD flare in optimizing neurologic recovery and functional outcomes. It may also provide a framework for applying stroke-based neurorehabilitation models that emphasize early intervention and activity-dependent neuroplasticity during neurologic recovery in patients with NMOSD.
