Reliability, validity, and minimal detectable change of the Step Test in patients with total knee arthroplasty.
Article in Irish journal of medical science, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06344182 (Reliability, Concurrent Validity and Minimal Detectable Change of the Step Up and Down Test in Patients With Total Knee Arthroplasty), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
backgroundStep Test (ST) is frequently used to assess dynamic balance and locomotor function in clinical practice.
aimsThis study aimed to determine the concurrent validity, reliability, and minimal detectable change (MDC) of the ST in patients with total knee arthroplasty (TKA).
methodsThe study included 56 patients with TKA. The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was used to assess the test-retest reliability of the ST. The correlations of the ST with timed up and go (TUG) and 10-m walk test (10MWT) were assessed for concurrent validity.
resultsTest-retest (ICC 0.90) reliability of the ST was determined to be excellent. The SEM and MDC
conclusionThe ST is a valid and reliable method in the assessment of dynamic balance ability and locomotor function in patients with TKA. The ST can be used to quantify changes in dynamic balance level and locomotor function in patients with TKA.
