Integrated 3D motion analysis with functional magnetic resonance neuroimaging to identify neural correlates of lower extremity movement.
Article in Journal of neuroscience methods, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
backgroundTo better understand the neural drivers of aberrant motor control, methods are needed to identify whole brain neural correlates of isolated joints during multi-joint lower-extremity coordinated movements. This investigation aimed to identify the neural correlates of knee kinematics during a unilateral leg press task. NEW
methodThe current study utilized an MRI-compatible motion capture system in conjunction with a lower extremity unilateral leg press task during fMRI. Knee joint kinematics and brain activity were collected concurrently and averaged range of motion were modeled as covariates to determine the neural substrates of knee out-of-plane (frontal) and in-plane (sagittal) range of motion.
resultsIncreased out-of-plane (frontal) range of motion was associated with altered brain activity in regions important for attention, sensorimotor control, and sensorimotor integration (z >3.1, p < .05), but no such correlates were found with in-plane (sagittal) range of motion (z >3.1, p > .05). Comparison with Existing Method(s): Previous studies have either presented overall brain activation only, or utilized biomechanical data collected outside MRI in a standard biomechanics lab for identifying single-joint neural correlates.
conclusionsThe study shows promise for the MRI-compatible system to capture lower-extremity biomechanical data collected concurrently during fMRI, and the present data identified potentially unique neural drivers of aberrant biomechanics. Future research can adopt these methods for patient populations with CNS-related movement disorders to identify single-joint kinematic neural correlates that may adjunctively supplement brain-body therapeutic approaches.
