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

The use of machine learning to estimate joint angles from inertial sensors is a promising approach to in-field motion analysis. In this context, the simplification of the measurements by using a small number of sensors is of great interest. Neural networks have the opportunity to estimate joint angles from a sparse dataset, which enables the reduction of sensors necessary for the determination of all three-dimensional lower limb joint angles. Additionally, the dimensions of the problem can be simplified using principal component analysis. Training a long short-term memory neural network on the prediction of 3D lower limb joint angles based on inertial data showed that three sensors placed on the pelvis and both shanks are sufficient. The application of principal component analysis to the data of five sensors did not reveal improved results. The use of longer motion sequences compared to time-normalised gait cycles seems to be advantageous for the prediction accuracy, which bridges the gap to real-time applications of long short-term memory neural networks in the future.
