Data-Driven Identification of Stroke through Machine Learning Applied to Complexity Metrics in Multimodal Electromyography and Kinematics.
Article in Entropy (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
A stroke represents a significant medical condition characterized by the sudden interruption of blood flow to the brain, leading to cellular damage or death. The impact of stroke on individuals can vary from mild impairments to severe disability. Treatment for stroke often focuses on gait rehabilitation. Notably, assessing muscle activation and kinematics patterns using electromyography (EMG) and stereophotogrammetry, respectively, during walking can provide information regarding pathological gait conditions. The concurrent measurement of EMG and kinematics can help in understanding disfunction in the contribution of specific muscles to different phases of gait. To this aim, complexity metrics (e.g., sample entropy; approximate entropy; spectral entropy) applied to EMG and kinematics have been demonstrated to be effective in identifying abnormal conditions. Moreover, the conditional entropy between EMG and kinematics can identify the relationship between gait data and muscle activation patterns. This study aims to utilize several machine learning classifiers to distinguish individuals with stroke from healthy controls based on kinematics and EMG complexity measures. The cubic support vector machine applied to EMG metrics delivered the best classification results reaching 99.85% of accuracy. This method could assist clinicians in monitoring the recovery of motor impairments for stroke patients.
