Models for temporal-spatial parameters in walking with cadence ratio as the independent variable.
Trial report in Medical & biological engineering & computing, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Accurate models that describe temporal-spatial parameters are desirable in gait estimation and rehabilitation. This study aimed to explore simple but relatively accurate models to describe stride length (SL), speed (SP) and walk ratio (WR) at various cadences. Twenty-four able-bodied participants (16 in a test group and 8 in a validation group) walked at seven cadence ratios (CRs). The individual and group mean SL, SP and WR were studied. Suitable temporal-spatial model structures were proposed and used to approximate the individual SL, SP and WR at various CRs. After the temporal-spatial model structures were found to be feasible, the general temporal-spatial models were analysed using the test group mean SL, SP and WR. Accuracy was assessed using the validation group mean values. Individual approximation accuracies showed that the proposed model structure deduced from the linear SL model was suitable for WR approximation. The linear, deduced quadratic and power functions approximated the individual SL, SP and WR, respectively, with high accuracy. Based on the test group mean SL, SP and WR, the general temporal-spatial models were obtained and produced comparable approximation accuracies in the validation group. The general temporal-spatial models predicted well the individual gait parameters with similar individual errors for both groups. These temporal-spatial models clearly describe SL, SP and especially WR at various cadences. They provide accurate reference data for gait estimation and have potential to guide speed modulation in robot-assisted gait rehabilitation. Graphical abstract Twenty-four able-bodied participants (16 in test group and 8 in validation group) walked at seven cadence ratios (CRs), with the individual and group mean stride length (SL), speed (SP) and walk ratio (WR) studied. This work selected the cadence ratio as the independent variable and yielded general temporal-spatial models based on the test group data, which were a linear model for SL, a quadratic function for SP and a power function for WR. The general temporal-spatial model produced comparable approximation accuracies in the validation group. Clearly describing SL, SP and especially WR at various cadences, these temporal-spatial models provide accurate references for gait estimation and have the potential to guide speed modulation in robot-assisted gait rehabilitation.
