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.

Abstract
Motor-cognitive dual tasks are used to investigate the interplay between gait and cognition. Dual task walking in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) results in decreased gait speed and more importantly in an increased fall risk. There is evidence that physical training may improve gait during dual task challenge. Physiotherapy and treadmill walking are known to improve single task gait. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of individualized physiotherapy or treadmill training on gait during dual task performance. 105 PD patients were randomly assigned to an intervention group (physiotherapy or treadmill). Both groups received 10 individual interventional sessions of 25 min each and additional group therapy sessions for 14 days. Primary outcome measure was the dual task gait speed. Secondary outcomes were additional gait parameters during dual task walking, UPDRS-III, BBS and walking capacity. All gait parameters were recorded using sensor-based gait analysis. Gait speed improved significantly by 4.2% (treadmill) and 8.3% (physiotherapy). Almost all secondary gait parameters, UPDRS-III, BBS, and walking capacity improved significantly and similarly in both groups. However, interaction effects were not observed. Both interventions significantly improved gait in patients with mild to moderate PD. However, treadmill walking did not show significant benefits compared to individualized physiotherapy. Our data suggest that both interventions improve dual task walking and therefore support safe and independent walking. This result may lead to more tailored therapeutic preferences.
