Treadmill Handrail-Use Increases the Anteroposterior Margin of Stability in Individuals' Post-Stroke.
Article in Journal of motor behavior, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Treadmills are important rehabilitation tools used with or without handrails. The handrails could be used to attain balance, prevent falls, and improve the walking biomechanics of stroke survivors, but it is yet unclear how the treadmill handrails impact their stability margins. Here, we investigated how 3 treadmill handrail-use conditions (no-hold, self-selected support, and light touch) impact stroke survivors' margins of stability (MoS). The anteroposterior MoS significantly increased for both legs with self-selected support while the mediolateral MoS of the unaffected leg decreased significantly when the participants walked with self-selected support in comparison to no-hold in both cases. We concluded that the contextual use of the handrail should guide its prescription for fall prevention or balance training in rehabilitation programs.
