Validity of body-worn sensor acceleration metrics to index upper extremity function in hemiparetic stroke.
Article in Journal of neurologic physical therapy : JNPT, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT01146379 (Dose Response of Movement Practice During Stroke Rehabilitation), which is not on this map. Cited by 38 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.

Abstract
background and purposeAccelerometers have been used to capture real-world use of the paretic upper extremity in people with stroke. It may be possible to characterize different aspects of the recorded acceleration to gain insight about movement capabilities during task-specific behavior. These measures may be of value for guiding rehabilitation. We undertook a study to identify the acceleration characteristics that have a stable association with upper extremity function and sensitivity to within-participant fluctuations in function over multiple sessions of task-specific training.
methodsTwenty-seven adults 6 months or more poststroke with upper extremity paresis participated. Signals from wrist-worn accelerometers were sampled at 30 Hz during 7 sessions of task-specific training. Paretic upper extremity function was evaluated with the Action Research Arm Test. We used Spearman correlations to examine within-session associations between acceleration metrics and Action Research Arm Test performance. A mixed model was used to determine which metrics were sensitive to within-participant fluctuations in upper extremity function across the 7 training sessions.
resultsUpper extremity function correlated with bilateral acceleration variability and use ratio during 5 and 6 sessions, respectively. Time accelerating between 76% and 100% of peak acceleration correlated with function in 6 sessions. Variability of the paretic upper extremity acceleration and the ratio of acceleration variability between upper extremities were associated with function during all 7 sessions. Variability in both the acceleration of the paretic upper extremity, and acceleration of the paretic and nonparetic extremities combined were sensitive to within-participant fluctuations in function across training sessions. DISCUSSION AND
conclusionsMultiple features of the acceleration profile track with upper extremity function within and across sessions of task-specific training. It may be possible to monitor these features with accelerometers to index upper extremity function outside of clinical settings.Video Abstract available for more insights from the authors (see Supplemental Digital Content 1, http://links.lww.com/JNPT/A91).
