1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Vestibular dysfunction has been reported as a potential cause in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). However, it remained unclear how stochastic galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) affected kinetic performance of patients with AIS. This study aimed to investigate the effect of stochastic GVS on ground reaction forces (GRF) measures during obstacle negotiation among patients with AIS. Fifteen patients with AIS and 15 age/sex-matched healthy controls (HC) participated in this study. Stochastic GVS was applied via electrodes placed over bilateral mastoid process with the intensity of 80% of individual sensory thresholds. Six walking trials including 2 types of GVS (stochastic GVS/sham stimulation) and 3 obstacle conditions (Level/Low/High) were randomly allocated to each participant, and each trial was repeated 3 times. Four AMTI force plates were used to measure GRF peaks and impulses in anterior-posterior (AP
