A multifaceted and clinically viable paradigm to quantify postural control impairments among adolescents with concussion.
Article in Physiological measurement, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveTo identify clinically significant postural control measures capable of distinguishing the performance of adolescents with concussion from uninjured controls. APPROACH: Fifteen adolescents with concussion (67% female; median age = 16.3 years; tested 8 ± 4 d post-injury) and 31 controls (45% female; median age = 15.2 years) completed a single/dual-task gait evaluation with a smartphone affixed to their lumbar spine, modified balance error scoring system (mBESS), and single/dual-task tandem gait test. Outcome measures were obtained via smartphone (single/dual-task gait speed, cadence, step length), mBESS (double/single/tandem errors), and tandem gait (single/dual-task time). We calculated area under the curve (AUC) values for each measure that demonstrated a significant difference between groups independently, and calculated a comprehensive AUC value for all measures combined. MAIN
resultsThe concussion group walked significantly slower (mean = 0.89 ± 0.15 versus 1.05 ± 0.15 m s SIGNIFICANCE: Smartphone-obtained gait measures and tandem gait times allowed for an excellent differentiation between adolescents with concussion versus control participants. This reinforces the need for multimodal approaches to postural control impairment recognition among adolescents with concussion.
