Brain Connectivity Analysis in Distinct Footwear Conditions during Infinity Walk Using fNIRS.

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
Gait and balance are an intricate interplay between the brain, nervous system, sensory organs, and musculoskeletal system. They are greatly influenced by the type of footwear, walking patterns, and surface. This exploratory study examines the effects of the Infinity Walk, pronation, and footwear conditions on brain effective connectivity patterns. A continuous-wave functional near-infrared spectroscopy device collected data from five healthy participants. A highly computationally efficient connectivity model based on the Grange causal relationship between the channels was applied to data to find the effective relationship between inter- and intra-hemispheric brain connectivity. Brain regions of interest (ROI) were less connected during the barefoot condition than during other complex walks. Conversely, the highest interconnectedness between ROI was observed while wearing flat insoles and medially wedged sandals, which is a relatively difficult type of footwear to walk in.
