Relationship between gait regularity and harmony, and gait speed at discharge in inpatients with subacute stroke.
Article in Journal of physical therapy science, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
[Purpose] Accelerometry indices are a promising and simple method to quantify gait stability. However, the long-term relationship between gait stability and walking ability in patients with stroke has not been fully investigated. The purpose of this study was to longitudinally examine the relationship between gait regularity and harmony at admission and gait speed at discharge in inpatients with subacute mild stroke. [Participants and Methods] Sixteen patients with subacute stroke (median age, 69.5 years [1st-3rd interquartile range, 58.0-73.8 years]; 13 males) were enrolled in the study. A Spearman's rank correlation coefficient was calculated for step regularity, stride regularity, the harmonic ratio at admission, and the walking speed at discharge. We also calculated the partial rank order correlation, controlling for balance ability. [Results] The vertical step regularity, harmonic ratio, and anterior-posterior harmonic ratio were all positively correlated with the walking speed at discharge. Positive correlations with vertical step regularity and harmonic ratio were found in partial rank order correlations when controlled for balance ability. [Conclusion] Vertical step regularity and gait harmony had predictive validity for discharge gait speed in patients with subacute stroke.
