Association Between Exercise Adherence and Long-Term Quality of Life in Ischemic Stroke Survivors: A 2-Year Prospective Cohort Study.
Observational study in Nursing open, 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
aimsThis study aimed to investigate factors associated with quality of life within 2 years post-discharge, with a particular focus on exercise adherence.
designA prospective observational cohort study.
methodsParticipants were enrolled during hospitalisation and followed up at discharge and at 1, 3, 6, 12 and 24 months post-discharge via questionnaires. Linear mixed-effects models were used to identify factors associated with quality of life. DATA SOURCES: Data were collected from ischemic stroke patients (discharged from The First Affiliated Hospital of Shantou University Medical College, January to August 2021) using structured questionnaires, medical records and validated scales.
resultsOf 355 enrolled stroke survivors, 242 (68.2%) completed the two-year follow-up. Functional disability, exercise adherence, family history of stroke and prior stroke were independently associated with long-term quality of life.
conclusionGreater exercise adherence is independently associated with better quality of life on average over the 24-month follow-up period among stroke survivors. IMPLICATIONS FOR THE PROFESSION AND/OR PATIENT CARE: Nurses and rehabilitation guidelines should prioritise exercise adherence support during long-term follow-up to sustain post-stroke quality of life.
