The Relationship between Components of Postural Control and Locomotive Syndrome in Older Adults.

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
Locomotive Syndrome (LS), a condition related to impaired mobility, is influenced by balance control, which comprises six components. Deficiencies in these components can lead to reduced mobility and decreased quality of life. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between the components of postural control and LS in older adults using the Brief-BESTest. Therefore, this cross-sectional study involved 122 elderly participants from Tha Sala District, Nakhon Si Thammarat Province, both with and without LS. Participants underwent assessments using the Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL) assessment, the Thai Mental State Examination (TMSE), the Two-Step Test, and the Brief-BESTest. The Brief-BESTest covers six balance components: Biomechanical Constraints, Stability Limits, Anticipatory Postural Adjustments, Postural Responses, Sensory Orientation, and Stability in Gait. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize participant characteristics, and Chi-square tests were conducted to examine the relationship between each balance component and LS. Cramer's V was used to assess the strength of the relationships. The results showed the average age of the sample was 67.67 ± 6.01 years with 85.20 percent female and 14.80 percent male. There were significant relationships between LS and three balance components: Biomechanical Constraints (Chi-square = 5.35,
