FoG-Finder: Real-time Freezing of Gait Detection and Treatment.
Article in ...IEEE...International Conference on Connected Health: Applications, Systems and Engineering Technologies.

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
Freezing of gait is a serious symptom of Parkinson's disease that increases the risk of injury through falling, and reduces quality of life. Current clinical freezing of gait treatments fail to adequately address the fall risk posed by freezing of gait symptoms, and current real-time treatment systems have high false positive rates. To address this problem, we designed a closed-loop, non-intrusive, and real-time freezing of gait detection and treatment system, FoG-Finder, that automatically detects and treats freezing of gait. To evaluate FoG-Finder, we first collected 716 freezing of gait events from 11 patients. We then compared FoG-Finder against other real-time systems with our dataset. Our system was able to achieve a 13.4% higher F1 score and a 10.7% higher overall accuracy while achieving a reduction of 85.8% in the false positive treatment rate compared with other validated real-time freezing of gait detection and treatment systems. Additionally, FoG-Finder achieved an average treatment latency of 427ms and 615ms for subject-dependent and leave-one-subject-out settings, respectively, making it a viable system to treat freezing of gait in the real-world.
