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

introductionThe rapid and extensive expansion of virtual reality (VR) across all medical specialties, including neurorehabilitation, has significantly enhanced and broadened the treatment options for individuals with neurological disorders. The objective of the present study was to carry out an economic analysis of the MYO Armband

methodsA randomized controlled trial was conducted. The sample was randomly assigned to two groups: an experimental group (EG) that received UL rehabilitation through serious games developed by the research team and controlled with the MYO Armband

resultsThe total costs in the CG amounted to 5,721.1 euros compared to 6,240.4 euros for the EG, with a cost difference between intervention and control of 35 euros per patient. The MYO Armband

conclusionThe use of MYO Armband
