[Reactive dynamic balance in the geriatric setting : Possibilities for evaluation and quantification in functionally heterogeneous persons].
Review in Zeitschrift fur Gerontologie und Geriatrie, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundMost falls in older persons occur during walking and are often due to maladaptation in response to gait perturbations. Therefore, the assessment of reactive dynamic balance is highly relevant for determining the individual risk of falling and could enable an early initiation of interventions.
objectiveThe methods available for perturbation of gait and for evaluating the corresponding reaction patterns are critically discussed in order to approach the assessment of reactive dynamic balance. MATERIAL AND
methodsA diagnostic protocol for perturbation of gait on a treadmill was developed based on the literature. The application of the protocol to map reactive dynamic balance as comprehensively as possible is presented.
resultsAfter the initial determination of the individually preferred gait speed over ~ 6 min, the participant's gait is disrupted with 9 different types of perturbations over a time period of ~ 4:30 min. The evaluation options include spatiotemporal parameters and their variability, the margin of stability and the Lyapunov exponent.
conclusionDynamic reactive balance is a promising and specific parameter for quantifying the risk of falling in older persons. The comprehensive evaluation of the documented parameters is currently insufficient because there are no established methods or references. The development of a unified method for the sensitive determination of reactive dynamic balance is essential for its use in assessment of the risk of falling in the clinical context and for measuring the success of training.
