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
purposeTo our knowledge, no studies compared the video-clinician-based tools and patient-reported questionnaires in assessing gait and balance in people with MS (pwMS). The present study investigated the correlation and agreement between video-clinician-based objective measurement tools and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) in gait and balance evaluation.
methodsA prospective cross-sectional study was conducted with 55 pwMS. Video analysis-based gait was evaluated by the Tinetti Gait Assessment (TGA), Gait Assessment and Intervention Tool (GAIT), and Functional Ambulation Classification Scale (FACS) by the clinician. Participants' self-reported gait and balance were assessed with the Multiple Sclerosis Walking Scale-12 (MSWS-12) and Activity-Specific Balance Confidence Scale (ABC).
resultsThere was a moderate positive correlation between ABC with TGA and FACS (r
conclusionsClinician-based gait and balance tools demonstrate consistent results with PROMs in pwMS. Considering the low cost and practical use of PROMs, in cases where video-based clinician-based measurements cannot be provided (time, space, and technical inadequacies), questionnaires can provide concordant results at moderate and severe levels compared with objective tools.
