Immediate effects of lower limb loading exercise during stepping with and without augmented loading feedback on mobility of ambulatory individuals with spinal cord injury: a single-blinded, randomized, cross-over trial.
Trial report in Spinal cord, 2020. 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
STUDY
designSingle-blinded, randomized, cross-over design.
objectivesTo compare the immediate effects of bodyweight shifting and lower limb loading (LLL) exercise during stepping with and without augmented loading feedback, followed by overground walking, on the mobility of ambulatory individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI).
settingAcademic laboratory center.
methodsThirty participants with SCI were trained using a single intervention session consisting of repetitive bodyweight shifting and LLL exercises during stepping with or without external feedback (10 min/leg) followed by overground walking (10 min) with a 2-week washout period, in a random sequence. The timed up-and-go test (TUG) (primary outcome), 10-m walk test (10MWT), five times sit-to-stand test (FTSST), and maximal LLL were measured 1 day before and immediately after each training session.
resultsSignificant improvement was found following both training sessions, excepting the TUG and LLL of the less-affected leg, where improvement was found only after training using augmented feedback. Moreover, the improvement following the training with feedback was significantly greater than that after training without feedback. The mean (95% CI) between-group differences for the TUG = 1.9 [0.6-3.3]s, 10MWT = 0.1 [0.0-0.1]m/s, FTSST = 1.0 [1.5-4.8]s, LLL = 3.1 [1.5-4.8]-2.8 [0.8-4.9]%bodyweight, p < 0.05.
conclusionsThe training programs immediately enhanced the mobility of ambulatory individuals with chronic SCI (post-injury time >6 years), particularly the training with augmented loading feedback. The findings offer another effective rehabilitation strategy that can be applied in various clinical and home-based settings.
