Effect of Cawthorne and Cooksey exercise on balance control and fall risk among middle-aged population: A single group pre-post experimental study.
Article in Journal of education and health promotion, 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
backgroundBalance impairment is one of the causes of the risk of falls among all age groups and is a continuing threat to morbidity and mortality across the world. Previous studies stated that the vestibular system is affected in middle-aged population, which leads to imbalance and a high risk of falls. There is a lack of research in this account so this study has been done to find the effect of Cawthorne and Cooksey exercise in vestibular rehabilitation on balance control and the risk of falls among middle-age population. MATERIALS AND
methodsAccording to the criteria of selection 30 subjects were recruited for this study. Baseline demographic measurements were recorded. Timed up and go (TUG) test time, Sway analysis using a force plate, and Morse fall scale measures were used as outcomes. Cawthorne and Cooksey exercise was given for 8 weeks 3 sessions per week. Pre and post-intervention outcome measures with 3-month follow-up were recorded for data analysis.
resultsThe mean age of participants was 49.55 ± 5.67 years. The paired sample
conclusionThere is a statistically significant effect of Cawthorne and Cooksey exercise on balance control and fall risk among middle-aged population of 40-60 years.
