Review in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06715098 (Comparison of Robot Assisted Gait Training and Body Weight Supported Treadmill Training in Chronic Stroke Patients Using Gait Analysis and SEMG Measurements), which is not on this map. Cited by 17 papers, 4 of them syntheses that pooled it.

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.

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

A stroke is an acute disruption of focal or global brain activity that last for a day or leads to death. Most stroke patients have an asymmetric gait, lower-extremity stiffness of the affected (hemiplegia) side, and impaired single stance and weight transfer capacity, restricting their locomotor function. Although between 65% and 85% of individuals can walk alone within six months after a stroke with appropriate surgical/pharmaceutical procedures and rehabilitative therapy, poor walking and cardiac efficiency continue to impede everyday walking for hemiplegia patients. Various methods are used to improve gait in stroke patients. Robotic-assisted gait training (RAGT) is given via a robot system device. Ground exoskeletons, end-effector devices, wearable exoskeletons are three types of rehabilitation robots that have been developed. The HAL (Hybrid Assistive Limb) exoskeleton and RoboGait is also modified gait device to enhance gait. Robotic Neurorehabilitation can be a useful technique for reducing gait impairments and, as a result, increasing the standard of living of post-stroke individuals.
