The effects of practice schedules on the process of motor adaptation.
Article in Journal of musculoskeletal & neuronal interactions, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectivesWalking is a well-practiced skill but requires adapting steps online to meet external constraints. The objective of this study was to examine the effects of types of practice schedules (i.e., blocked versus random practice) on the process of adapting and generalizing motor actions.
methodsTo examine how practice schedules influence the process of adaptation and generalization during walking, 60 young, healthy adults walked to normal, slow, and fast metronome paces: 30 with blocked practice and 30 with random practice. Paces were interspersed with 2 carryover trials with no beat. Subsequent paces were a test of generalizing adaptation from the old to the new metronome pace.
resultsThe results showed that participants who received blocked practice acclimated more quickly to the metronome beat. Specifically, the blocked practice group altered their walking more quickly during the fast metronome pace. In contrast, the random practice group matched the metronome beat more quickly during the slow pace. Participants who received blocked practice demonstrated carryover effects during carryover trials after walking to the metronome.
conclusionsThese findings extend an understanding of how the process of adaptation unfolds over time with the imposition of timing constraints.
