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
The dynamic motor control index is an emerging biomarker of age-related neuromuscular impairment. To date, it has been computed by quantifying the co-activity of eleven lower limb muscles. Because clinics that routinely employ electromyography typically collect from fewer muscles, a reduced muscle sensor set may improve the clinical usability of this metric of motor control. This study aimed to test if commonly used eight- and five-muscle electromyography (EMG) sensor sets produce similar dynamic motor control indices as the previously examined eleven-muscle sensor set and similarly differentiate across age subgroups. EMG data were collected during treadmill walking from 36 adults separated into young (N = 18, <35 yrs.), young-old (N = 13, 65-74 yrs.), and old-old (N = 5, ≥75 yrs.) subgroups. Dynamic motor control indices generated using the sensor set with eleven muscles correlated with the eight-muscle set (R
