1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

The investigation into the distinctive difference of gait is of significance for the clinical diagnosis of neurodegenerative diseases. However, human gait is affected by many factors like behavior, occupation and so on, and they may confuse the gait differences among Parkinson's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and Huntington's disease. For the purpose of examining distinctive gait differences of neurodegenerative diseases, this study extracts various features from both vertical ground reaction force and time intervals. Moreover, refined Lempel-Ziv complexity is proposed considering the detailed distribution of signals based on the median and quartiles. Basic features (mean, coefficient of variance, and the asymmetry index), nonlinear dynamic features (Hurst exponent, correlation dimension, largest Lyapunov exponent), and refined Lempel-Ziv complexity of different neurodegenerative diseases are compared statistically by violin plot and Kruskal-Wallis test to reveal distinction and regularities. The comparative analysis results illustrate the gait differences across these neurodegenerative diseases by basic features and nonlinear dynamic features. Classification results by random forest indicate that the refined Lempel-Ziv complexity can robustly enhance the diagnosis accuracy when combined with basic features.
