Specific treatment for sensory impairment versus no treatment (or with conventional treatment in both study arms): sensory impairment outcome measures
| Outcome or subgroup title | No. of studies | No. of participants | Statistical method | Effect size |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Kinesthesia: thumb opposition (post intervention) | 1 | Odds Ratio (M‐H, Fixed, 95% CI) | Totals not selected | |
| 2 Kinesthesia: digit flexion (post intervention) | 1 | Odds Ratio (M‐H, Fixed, 95% CI) | Totals not selected | |
| 3 Position sense: digit flexion (post intervention) | 1 | Odds Ratio (M‐H, Fixed, 95% CI) | Totals not selected | |
| 4 Pain (FMA) (post intervention) | 1 | Mean Difference (IV, Fixed, 95% CI) | Totals not selected | |
| 5 Mean recovery rate of sensation over 6 weeks | 1 | Mean Difference (IV, Fixed, 95% CI) | Totals not selected | |
| 6 Combined sensory modalities (FMA sensation = light touch plus position sense) (post intervention) | 1 | Mean Difference (IV, Fixed, 95% CI) | Totals not selected |
