Feasibility of a Virtual Reality System in Speech Therapy: From Assessment to Tele-Rehabilitation in Children with Cerebral Palsy.
Article in Children (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesNew advances in technologies are opening the possibility to support functional evaluation and rehabilitation in the field of speech therapy. Among available systems, a virtual reality rehabilitation system (VRRS, Khymeia) is a multi-domain ecosystem. Despite it being used in a limited number of studies, its use in speech-therapy has shown potential for promoting linguistic and literacy skills.
methodsThis pilot study aims to assess the feasibility of single-session speech assessment with the VRRS in twenty-eight children with cerebral palsy (CP) by means of ad hoc questionnaires. Moreover, we evaluated the feasibility and the effects of an intensive tele-rehabilitation treatment with the VRRS in a subgroup of three children with unilateral CP.
resultsFeasibility was generally good when using the VRRS for assessments. Both clinicians and children found it to have good usability, although acceptability scores were higher for children than clinicians. For tele-rehabilitation, overall improvements were observed in both linguistic and learning (reading and writing) skills.
conclusionsThis study paves the way for VRRS use in speech-therapy tele-rehabilitation for children with CP and language and learning difficulties.
