Walking speed measurement technology: A review.
Article in Current geriatrics reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 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
purpose of reviewThis article presents an overview of the main technologies used to estimate gait parameters, focusing on walking speed (WS). RECENT
findingsNew wearable and environmental technologies to estimate WS have been developed in the last five years. Wearable technologies refer to sensors attached to parts of the patient's body that capture the kinematics during walking. Alternatively, environmental technologies capture walking patterns using external instrumentation. In this review, wearable and external technologies have been included.From the different works reviewed, external technologies face the challenge of implementation outside controlled facilities; an advantage that wearable technologies have, but have not been fully explored. Additionally, systems that can track WS changes in daily activities, especially at-home assessments, have not been developed. SUMMARY: Walking speed is a gait parameter that can provide insight into an individual's health status. Image-based, walkways, wearable, and floor-vibrations technologies are the most current used technologies for estimating WS. In this paper, research from the last five years that explore each technology's capabilities on WS estimation and an evaluation of their technical and clinical aspects is presented.
