Cardiac Function and Fatigue During Exoskeleton-Assisted Sit-to-Stand Maneuver and Walking in People with Stroke with Moderate to Severe Gait Disability: A Pilot Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundWearable powered exoskeletons could be used to provide robotic-assisted gait training (RAGT) in people with stroke (PwST) and walking disability. The study aims to compare the differences in cardiac function, fatigue, and workload during activities of daily living (ADLs), while wearing an exoskeleton.
methodsFive PwST were recruited in this pilot cross-sectional study. We observed three experimental conditions: walking without and with the UAN.GO exoskeleton and walking with the UAN.GO combined with the OPTIGO walker. Each condition included five trials related to ADLs such as sitting and walking.
resultsNo statistically significant difference was found between heart rate and R-R of ECG data while comparing all the observed conditions during each respective trial. The NASA Task Load Index did not show significant differences across all trials, except for a significant difference between Condition 2 and Condition 3 in Trial 4 (
conclusionsThis study suggests that UAN.GO exoskeleton could be used for RAGT in PwST with disability without compromising cardiovascular function.
