Temporal feature estimation during walking using miniature accelerometers: an analysis of gait improvement after hip arthroplasty.
Trial report in Medical & biological engineering & computing, 1999. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 36 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
A new method for the detection of gait cycle phases using only two miniature accelerometers together with a light, portable digital recorder is proposed. Each subject is asked to walk on a walkway at his/her own preferred speed. Gait analysis was performed using an original method of computing the values of temporal parameters from accelerometer signals. First, to validate the accelerometric method, measurements are taken on a group of healthy subjects. No significant differences are observed between the results thus obtained and those from pressure sensors attached under the foot. Then, measurements using only accelerometers are performed on a group of 12 patients with unilateral hip osteo-arthritis. The gait analysis is carried out just before hip arthroplasty and again, three, six and nine months afterwards. A mean decrease of 88% of asymmetry of stance time and especially a mean decrease of 250% of asymmetry of double support time are observed, nine months after the operation. These results confirm the validity of the proposed method for healthy subjects and its efficiency for functional evaluation of gait improvement after arthroplasty.
