1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundAccurate detection of the intended movement direction of a patient plays an important role in the development of a training system for gait rehabilitation and enables to increase the effect of gait rehabilitation training.

objectiveThis study investigated the detection of the intended movement of a user to operate a ceiling rail-based rehabilitative training system with accurate timing.

methodsTo detect the movement direction intention of a user, two potentiometers were used to measure the movement direction in the anterior, posterior, and left and right directions of the user when operating the driving motor of the rehabilitative training system. A simple test mock-up with two potentiometers was fabricated, and the experiments were conducted to determine the effect of the direction of movement on the measured values of potentiometers. A direction measurement algorithm was developed to control the driving motor of the rail-based gait rehabilitative training system.

resultsThe intended movement direction of the user could be predicted for eight directions by combining the "positive value, 0, negative value" of each measured value of the two potentiometers. Further, the developed algorithm was effectively used to control the driving function to assist the walking, sitting-standing, and climbing up-down the step activities in daily life.

conclusionsThe movement intention detection function for users developed in this paper can be used to effectively control a rehabilitative training system for patients with hemiplegia to improve gait movement and posture balance, thereby improving their function of activities of daily living.
