Talking while Walking After Concussion: Acute effects of concussion on speech pauses and gait speed.
Article in medRxiv : the preprint server for health sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Deficits in dual-tasks (DT) are frequently observed post-concussion (i.e., mild Traumatic Brain Injury). However, traditional DT may not be relevant to daily life. Walking while talking elicits DT costs in healthy adults and is part of daily life. Objective: We investigated the effect of concussion on walking with extemporaneous speech and explored relationships between DT and acute symptoms. Methods: Participants with recent concussion (<14 days post-injury) and controls completed three tasks: single-task gait without speaking (ST Results: Both concussion (n=19) and control (n=18) groups exhibited longer speech pauses ( Conclusions: Extemporaneous speech is well-practiced, but challenging to complete while walking post-concussion. Strong associations between DT outcomes and vestibular-related symptoms suggest DT deficits vary with post-concussion symptomology. DT deficits may be deleterious to daily tasks post-concussion.
