Gait during community ambulation and laboratory-based walking in people with mild traumatic brain injury.
Article in Gait & posture, 2025. 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
backgroundGait impairments are common in individuals with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), presenting in the acute phase and often persisting in subtle ways over time. Despite the prominence of laboratory gait evaluations, a comprehensive understanding of gait deficits post-mTBI necessitates the examination of various gait domains in real-world environments. Assessing gait during a community ambulation task (CAT) may capture real-world challenges and influence focused interventions or rehabilitation in individuals with mTBI. RESEARCH QUESTION: The aim of the study was to compare gait performance across independent gait domains in individuals with and without mTBI using wearable sensors during both the CAT and laboratory tasks (i.e., 1-minute walk test). Additionally, associations between the CAT and single- and dual-task walking were investigated.
methodsIn this cross-sectional study, 107 participants, including individuals with mTBI (n = 52) and healthy controls (n = 55), underwent gait assessments during the CAT and 1-minute walk tests (single- and dual-task) using wearable sensors. Four independent gait domains (i.e., gait variability, pace, rhythm, and turning), consisting of thirteen gait variables, were analyzed. Statistical methods included t-tests and partial correlations, adjusted for covariates.
resultsIndividuals with mTBI exhibited gait deficits across multiple gait domains. Specifically, increased gait variability, decreased gait pace and turns post mTBI were seen in the CAT and 1-minute walk tests. Notably, the CAT task exhibited greater gait differences in terms of gait variability and pace compared to the laboratory tasks. Across gait domains, the CAT revealed greater number of correlated measures with dual-task walking compared to single-task walking. SIGNIFICANCE: The community ambulation walking task showed more abnormalities across gait domains compared to laboratory walking tests, highlighting the potential importance of incorporating real-life, community ambulatory tasks into post-mTBI evaluation of mobility.
