The effects of visual cues from optical stimulation devices on gait disturbance in patients with Parkinson's disease.

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] The purpose of this study was to identify the optimal visual cues for gait disturbance in patients with Parkinson's disease based on the luminous duration and the individual patient preferences for a wearable visual cue device. [Participants and Methods] Twenty-four patients with Parkinson's disease walked while wearing only a visual cue device in the control condition. They then walked while the device was set to two stimulus conditions: the luminous duration at 10% and 50% of the individual gait cycle. After walking under the two stimulus conditions, the patients were asked for their preferred visual cue condition. The walking results were compared between the two stimulus conditions and the control condition. Gait parameters were compared among the three conditions. The comparisons with preference, non-preference, and control conditions were also made for the same gait parameter. [Results] When compared to the control condition, walking with visual cues in the stimulus conditions reduced stride duration and increased cadence. The preference and non-preference conditions had shorter stride durations than the control condition. Furthermore, the preference condition also resulted in a faster gait speed than the non-preference condition. [Conclusion] This study suggests that a wearable visual cue device with the patient's preferred luminous duration may help manage gait disturbance in patients with Parkinson's disease.
