Relationships between balance control and cognitive functions, gait speed, and activities of daily living.

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
purposeThe purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between balance control and cognitive functions, gait speed, and activities of daily living. SAMPLE: In all, 80 elderly participants with mild cognitive impairment (mean age 67.07 ± 4.3 years) were randomly allocated into the experimental group (n = 40) or the control group (n = 40).
methodsBalance control was evaluated by the Balance Evaluation Systems Test (BESTest). Cognitive functions were evaluated by the Trail Making Test and the Nine Hole Peg Test. Gait speed was assessed by the Up and Go test with and without dual task. For evaluation of activities of daily living (ADL), the BADLS test was used. The experimental group underwent CogniPlus 20 training sessions twice a week. Both groups had 30 min of physical training daily for 10 weeks.
resultsAfter training, there were five significant correlations found in the experimental group (balance control and visuomotor coordination, psychomotor speed, gait speed with and without cognitive tasks, and activities of daily living). In the control group, one significant correlation was found between balance control and gait speed.
conclusionThe cognitive-motor training performed for 10 weeks confirmed more significant relationships between balance control, cognitive functions, gait speed, and activities of daily living, when compared with motor intervention alone.
