Long duration multi-channel surface electromyographic signals during walking at natural pace: Data acquisition and analysis.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Variability of myoelectric activity during walking is the result of human capability to adapt to both intrinsic and extrinsic perturbations. The availability of sEMG signals lasting at least some minutes (instead of seconds) is needed to comprehensively analyze the variability of surface electromyographic (sEMG) signals. The current study introduces a dataset of long-lasting sEMG signals recorded during walking sessions of 31 healthy subjects, aged between 20 and 30 years, conducted at the Movement Analysis Lab of Università Politecnica delle Marche, Ancona, Italy. The sEMG signals were captured from ten distinct lower-limb muscles (five per leg), including gastrocnemius lateralis (GL), tibialis anterior (TA), rectus femoris (RF), hamstrings (Ham), and vastus lateralis (VL). Synchronized electrogoniometric and foot-floor-contact signals are also supplied to enable the spatial/temporal analysis of the sEMG signals. The experimental procedure involves subjects walking barefoot on level ground for approximately 5 minutes at their natural speed and pace, following an eight-shaped path featuring linear diagonal segments, curves, accelerations, and decelerations. An advanced analysis of the sEMG signals was performed to test the reliability and usability of the current dataset. The considerable duration of the signals makes this dataset particularly useful for studies where a significant volume of data is crucial, such as machine/deep learning approaches, investigations examining the variability of muscle recruitment during physiological walking, validations of the reliability of novel sEMG-based algorithms, and assembly of reference datasets for pathological condition characterization.
