Standard Error of the Mean and Minimal Detectable Change of Gait Speed in Older Adults Using Japanese Long-Term Care Insurance System.
Article in Gerontology & geriatric medicine. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Evaluation of motor function, such as gait ability, can accurately predict the subsequent occurrence of disability in older adults. There are no reports of standard error of the mean (SEM) or minimal detectable change (MDC) with respect to gait in Japanese long-term care insurance-certified individuals. The purpose of this study was to investigate the values of preferred gait, fast gait, and the timed up and go (TUG) test. This study included 46 participants using the Japanese long-term care insurance system. (age 86.5 ± 6.6 years, 12 men, 34 women). The duration of three gait were measured twice using a stopwatch. The SEM was 0.07 for preferred gait, 0.09 for fast gait and 2.59 for TUG. The MDC was 0.19 for preferred gait, 0.26 for fast gait, and 7.17 for TUG. The SEM and MDC values of preferred gait, fast gait, and TUG in this study corroborated with those of previous studies, whereas others were different. Considering that gait speed differs with the country, it may be difficult to compare it among different population groups. We obtained the results of gait speed of Japanese long-term care insurance-certified individuals, which is a new finding.
