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.

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.

Abstract

BackgroundGait variability is increased in people with bilateral vestibulopathy (BVP). Since dedicated gait analysis can be resource-intensive, concurrent assessment with another vestibular function test, dynamic visual acuity (DVA), is worth consideration.ObjectiveTo assess comparability of results from a combined gait and DVA assessment with results from a previous dedicated gait analysis.Methods15 participants (4 women) with BVP were analysed. The DVA test assessed visual acuity during stance and during treadmill walking at 2, 4 and 6 km/h. An 8-camera motion capture system measured spatiotemporal gait parameters (step length, step time, step width and double support time; means and coefficients of variation [CoV]). The walking speed effect was assessed by mixed-effects models, and results were visually compared to previous results.ResultsWalking speed affected the means of step length, step time and double support time (
