A Sensor-Based Multichannel FES System to Control Knee Joint and Reduce Stance Phase Asymmetry in Post-Stroke Gait.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
Most of the studies using functional electrical stimulation (FES) in gait rehabilitation have been focused on correcting the drop foot syndrome. Using FES to control the knee joint in individuals with central nervous system (CNS) disorders could also play a key role in gait recovery: spasticity decrease, higher range of motion, positive effect on balance, limiting hyperextension and flexion in stance phase, reducing joint overload, etc. In stance phase, an accurate timing and a fine tuning of stimulation parameters are however required to provide a proper control of the knee stimulation while ensuring a safe and efficient support. In this study, 11 participants were equipped with inertial measurements units (IMU) and foot pressure insoles after supratentorial ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke, informing on knee angle and gait events used to online adapt FES during a 10 m walking protocol. Asymmetry of stance time and weight bearing were monitored as well as gait quality and physiological cost through a series of relevant markers. Vertical trunk motion has been significantly reduced during gait with FES (
