The outcome measure of mental health significantly improved in favor of the RAGT group in RCTs and non-RCTs (adjusted Hedges\u2019g 0.72, 95% CI: 0.34\u20131.10, adjusted Hedges g\u2009=\u20090.80, 95% CI 0.21-1.39, respectively). We observed a significant effect of RAGT on physical health in RCTs and non-RCTs (adjusted Hedges\u2019g 0.58, 95% CI 0.28, 0.88, adjusted Hedges g\u2009=\u20090.73, 95% CI 0.12, 1.33). After realizing a sensitivity analysis in RCTs, a positive impact on depression is observed (Hedges\u2019 g of \u22120.66, 95% CI \u22121.08 to \u22120.24).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study suggests that RAGT could improve the quality of life of patients with neurological impairments. A positive impact on depression is also observed in the short term.
