1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundHuman motor systems contain nonlinear features. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the geometric structure of attractors and analyze recurrence in two different pirouettes (jazz and classic) performed by 15 professional dancers.

methodsThe kinematics of the body's center of mass (CoM) and knee of the supporting leg (LKNE) during the pirouette were measured using the Vicon system. A time series of selected points were resampled, normalized, and randomly reordered. Then, every second time series was flipped to be combined with other time series and make a long time series out of the repetitions of a single task. The attractors were reconstructed, and the convex hull volumes (CHV) were counted for the CoM and LKNE for each pirouette in each direction. Recurrence quantification analysis (RQA) was used to extract additional information.

resultsThe CHVs calculated for the LKNE were significantly lower for the jazz pirouette. All RQA measures had the highest values for LKNE along the mediolateral axis for the jazz pirouette. This result underscores the high determinism, high motion recurrence, and complexity of this maneuver.

conclusionsThe findings offer new insight into the evaluation of the approximation of homogeneity in motion control. A high determinism indicates a highly stable and predictive motion trajectory.
