1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundHealth behavior adherence (HBA) is important for effective rehabilitation and secondary prevention after stroke. Young and middle-aged patients may face particular challenges in maintaining recommended health behaviors during hospitalization because of functional impairment, cognitive deficits, pain, and competing social or occupational responsibilities. However, factors associated with HBA in this population remain insufficiently characterized, and practical tools for the early identification of patients at risk of suboptimal adherence are limited. To identify factors associated with HBA in young and middle-aged patients with stroke during hospitalization and to develop a combined predictive model for the early identification of patients with non-high adherence.

methodsA single-center retrospective observational study was conducted, including 298 young and middle-aged stroke patients hospitalized between January 2021 and June 2024. Patients were categorized into a high-adherence group and a non-high-adherence group based on the HBA Index. Differences in demographic and functional characteristics between the groups were compared. Correlation analysis and multivariate logistic regression were performed to identify independent factors affecting HBA. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were constructed to evaluate the predictive performance of individual indicators and the combined model.

resultsAmong the 298 patients, 143 (48.0%) were classified as non-high-adherence. The high-adherence group had significantly better functional and cognitive scores, including the Barthel Index (BI), Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), and Berg Balance Scale (BBS), and experienced less pain (all

conclusionsA multidimensional combined predictive model demonstrated good discrimination performance and may help to identify patients at higher risk of non-high adherence.
