Impact of a stroke care pathway on self-perceived health 3 months after stroke.
Article in Journal of rehabilitation medicine, 2025. 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
backgroundA national stroke care pathway aiming at reducing time delays in stroke care was implemented in Norway in 2018. This study aimed to investigate the impact of goal attainment in the pre- and intrahospital care pathway on self-perceived health 3 months after stroke.
methodsData from the Norwegian Stroke Register (NSR) from 2019 were used. Patients were classified into attainment or non-attainment groups, depending on goal achievement of the SCP. Linear regression analyses were used to assess a possible association between goal attainment and self-perceived health evaluated by EQ-5D-5L and EQ-VAS at 3 months post-stroke.
resultsAmong 4,133 included patients, 908 (22%) were included in the attainment group. We found no effect of goal attainment upon mean EQ-5D-5L. However, when adjusting for stroke severity, attaining the SCP was significantly associated with self-perceived health.
conclusionIn this study, with a cohort of patients with mild to moderate strokes, we found no association between attaining goals of the stroke care pathway and self-perceived health. However, stroke severity might have acted as a suppressor variable underscoring the importance of stroke severity for self-perceived health.
