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

purposeBalance performance can be measured with a computerized dynamic posturography (CDP). Frequently used CDP protocols include the sensory organization test (SOT), motor control test (MCT) and adaptation test (ADT). The primary aim of this study was to produce normative data using the Bertec

methodsThe study population of 120 participants were divided into age groups of 20-29, 30-39 years, etc., with an equal number of men and women in each group. Using the Bertec

resultsSOT found that the 70-79 age group and men scored lower equilibrium scores (ES) on SOT4, and SOT6. Women had higher ES on SOT1. For the MCT, backward translation

conclusionWe have produced normative data for healthy adults aged 20-79 years for the SOT, MCT and ADT protocols using the Bertec® Balance Advantage CDP. Balance performance differences might be due to decline in visual acuity, presbyvestibulopathy and differences in body composition.
