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
introductionGait and posture abnormalities are the common disabling motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD). This study aims to investigate the differential characteristics of gait and posture in early-onset PD (EOPD) and late-onset PD (LOPD) using the Kinect depth camera.
methodsEighty-eight participants, including two subgroups of 22 PD patients and two subgroups of 22 healthy controls (HC) matched for age, sex, and height, were enrolled. Gait and posture features were quantitatively assessed using a Kinect-based system. A two-way analysis of variance was used to compare the difference between different subgroups.
resultsEOPD had a significantly higher Gait score than LOPD (p = 0.031). Specifically, decreased swing phase (p = 0.034) was observed in the EOPD group. Although the Posture score was similar between the two groups, LOPD was characterized by an increased forward flexion angle of the trunk at the thorax (p = 0.042) and a decreased forward flexion angle of the head relative to the trunk (p = 0.009). Additionally, age-independent features were observed in both PD subgroups, and post hoc tests revealed that EOPD generally performed worse gait features. In comparison, LOPD was characterized by worse performance in posture features.
conclusionsEOPD and LOPD exhibit different profiles of gait and posture features. The phenotype-specific characteristics likely reflect the distinct neurodegenerative processes between them.
