Development of a Control Strategy in an Isokinetic Device for Physical Rehabilitation.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Robotic-assisted rehabilitation is currently being applied to improve the effectiveness of human gait rehabilitation and recover the mobility and strength after a stroke or spinal cord injury; a robotic assistant can allow the active participation of the patient and the supervision of the collected data and decrease the labor required from therapists during the patient's training exercises. The goal of gait rehabilitation with robotic-based assistance is to restore motor function by using diverse control strategies, taking account of the physical interaction with the lower limbs of the patient. Over the last few years, researchers have extracted useful information from the patient's biological signals that can effectively reflect movement intention and muscle activation. One way to evaluate progress in rehabilitation is through isokinetic prototype tests that describe the dynamic characteristics of an isokinetic leg extension device for rehabilitation and control action. These tests use an isokinetic system to assess muscle strength and performance in a patient during isometric or isokinetic contraction. An experimental prototype shown in the following work allows the device's performance to be evaluated in a controlled environment before the patient's use. New features provide a control system that can be teleoperated for distributed structures, enabling the remote operation and management of the device. In order to achieve physical recovery from musculoskeletal injuries in the lower limbs and the reintegration of the affected subject into society as an independent and autonomous individual in their daily activities, a control model that introduces a medical isokinetic rehabilitation protocol is presented, in which the element that carries out such protocol consists of a magnetic particle brake whose control action is strongly influenced by the dynamics of the system when in contact with the end user-specifically, the patient's legs in the stretch from the knee to the ankle. The results of these tests are valuable for health professionals seeking to measure their patient's progress during the rehabilitation process and determine when it is safe and appropriate to advance in their treatment.
