Body Weight Support Treadmill Training for Children With Developmental Delay Who Are Ambulatory.
Trial report in Pediatric physical therapy : the official publication of the Section on Pediatrics of the American Physical Therapy Association, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 3 of them syntheses 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
purposeTo examine the effect of body weight-supported treadmill training (BWSTT) on gait and gross motor skill development in children (2-5 years old) with developmental delay who are ambulatory.
methodsTwenty-four subjects (12 control and 12 BWSTT) were enrolled in this randomized control trial. All subjects continued to receive physical therapy. Subjects were tested at baseline, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, and at 6 weeks after completion of BWSTT. Outcomes were assessed using the 10-m walk test and Gross Motor Function Measure-D and E.
resultsSignificant improvements were seen in gait velocity and gross motor skill attainment. With positive interactions in both the 10-m walk test and Gross Motor Function Measure-E, the BWSTT group as compared with the control group demonstrated functional gains in gait velocity and gross motor skills, P = .033 and .017, respectively.
conclusionsA 6-week high-intensity BWSTT program can improve gait velocity and influence functional gains.
