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

Conventional biomechanical modelling approaches involve the solution of large systems of equations that encode the complex mathematical representation of human motion and skeletal structure. To improve stability and computational speed, being a common bottleneck in current approaches, we apply machine learning to train surrogate models and to predict in near real-time, previously calculated medial and lateral knee contact forces (KCFs) of 54 young and elderly participants during treadmill walking in a speed range of 3 to 7 km/h. Predictions are obtained by fusing optical motion capture and musculoskeletal modeling-derived kinematic and force variables, into regression models using artificial neural networks (ANNs) and support vector regression (SVR). Training schemes included either data from all subjects (
