Summary of findings table ‐ Cognitive rehabilitation vs Conventional treatment

Functional independence · Treating patients with traumatic brain injury

It is very uncertain whether cognitive rehabilitation changes independence in ADL FIM, with 18 items in basic and psychosocial… compared with conventional treatment (very low certainty).

Pseudoelastic orthosis vs traditional (static) splint

Spasticity at up to 6 hours after treatment (measured by the Ashworth Scale, 0‐, with a higher score indicating greater spasticity) · children/young people aged 4‐18 years with traumatic brain injury and with 'mild to severe spastic tetraparesis' (weakness) in all limbs

Local corticosteroid injection (LCI) vs a control strategy (no treatment, placebo or waiting list controls)

Heel pain: VAS 0 to 100 (higher scores = worse pain) ‐ short‐term · Adults with plantar heel pain¹

Local steroid injection showed no clear difference in heel pain: VAS 0 to 100 (higher scores = worse pain) ‐ short‐term compared with placebo or no treatment control (low certainty).

Local corticosteroid injection (LCI) vs a control strategy (no treatment, placebo or waiting list controls)

Heel pain: VAS 0 to 100 (higher scores = worse pain) ‐ medium‐term · Adults with plantar heel pain¹

Local steroid injection showed no clear difference in heel pain: VAS 0 to 100 (higher scores = worse pain) ‐ medium‐term compared with placebo or no treatment control (low certainty).

Local corticosteroid injection (LCI) vs a control strategy (no treatment, placebo or waiting list controls)

Function: medium‐term FFI (0 to 100: higher scores = worse function) FHSQ (0 to 100: higher scores = better function · Adults with plantar heel pain¹

It is very uncertain whether local steroid injection changes function: medium‐term FFI (0 to 100: higher scores = worse function)… compared with placebo or no treatment control (very low certainty).
