Artificial intelligence detection of cognitive impairment in older adults during walking.
Article in Alzheimer's & dementia (Amsterdam, Netherlands). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
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
introductionTo detect early cognitive impairment in community-dwelling older adults, this study explored the viability of artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted linear acceleration and angular velocity analysis during walking.
methodsThis cross-sectional study included 879 participants without dementia (female, 60.6%; mean age, 73.5 years) from the 2011 Comprehensive Gerontology Survey. Sensors attached to the pelvis and left ankle recorded the triaxial linear acceleration and angular velocity while the participants walked at a comfortable speed. Cognitive impairment was determined using Mini-Mental State Examination scores. Deep learning models were used to discern the linear acceleration and angular velocity data of 12,302 walking strides.
resultsThe models' average sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve were 0.961, 0.643, and 0.833, respectively, across 30 testing datasets. DISCUSSION: AI-enabled gait analysis can be used to detect signs of cognitive impairment. Integrating this AI model into smartphones may help detect dementia early, facilitating better prevention. Highlights: Artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled gait analysis can be used to detect the early signs of cognitive decline.This AI model was constructed using data from a community-dwelling cohort.AI-assisted linear acceleration and angular velocity analysis during gait was used.The model may help in early detection of dementia.
