QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE INVESTIGATION OF THREE-DIMENSIONAL GAIT ANALYSIS IN PATIENTS WITH CERVICAL MYELOPATHY.
Article in Acta ortopedica brasileira, 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
objectiveThis study aims to describe a kinematic gait assessment protocol and identify its main alterations in individuals with cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) compared to healthy patients.
methodsIn total, 14 patients diagnosed with CSM were enrolled and submitted to a three-dimensional gait analysis. The movement of patients was captured with infrared emission cameras that identified tracking markers placed on the lower limbs. Reference positions were used, and the patients walked along a rubberized walkway. The Gait Profile Score (GPS) and Movement Analysis Profile (MAP) were used to analyze variables. Results were subjected to a Student's t-test at 95% confidence interval. The R Core Team (2016) software was used for statistical analysis, graphically comparing the study results with data from healthy patients.
resultsWhen comparing the kinematic data bilaterally, no statistical differences were found. However, graphical analysis showed changes in the gait of patients with CSM compared to healthy individuals. There were differences in all movements, with a more significant discrepancy in hip and knee flexion and extension, dorsiflexion and plantar flexion, and internal and external hip rotation.
conclusionWe describe a protocol for gait kinematics assessment using GPS and MAP, and we presented the differences in gait kinematics in patients with CSM compared to healthy individuals.
