Dynamic Nomogram for Predicting the Fall Risk of Stroke Patients: An Observational Study.
Observational study in Clinical interventions in aging, 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
Background: Common fall risk assessment scales are not ideal for the prediction of falls in stroke patients. The study aimed to develop and verify a dynamic nomogram model for predicting the falls risk in stroke patients during rehabilitation. Methods: An observational study design was adopted, 488 stroke patients were treated in a tertiary hospital from March to September 2022 were investigated for fall risk factors and related functional tests. We followed up by telephone within 2 months after that to understand the occurrence of falls. Forward stepwise regression was used to analyze the data, and a dynamic nomogram model was developed. Results: During follow-up, three patients died, and 16 failed the follow-up, with a failure rate of 3.89%. Among 469 patients, 115 experienced falls, with a fall incidence rate of 24.4% and a cumulative of 163 falls. The fall risk was higher among patients aged 60-69, and ≥80 years than among patients aged <60 years. Patients with a fall history within the last 3 months, or a Berg balance scale (BBS) score of <40, or combined with anxiety had a higher fall risk. The differentiation of the dynamic nomogram model was evaluated. The area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (AUC-ROC), sensitivity, specificity of the model was 0.756, 66.09% and 73.16%, respectively. The AUC-ROC of the model was 0.761 by using the Bootstrap test, and the calibration curve coincided with the diagonal dashed line with a slope of one. The Hosmer-Lemeshow good of fit test value was Conclusion: Independent fall risk factors in stroke patients are age, had a fall history within the last 3 months, anxiety, and with the BBS score below 40 during rehabilitation. The dynamic nomogram prediction model for stroke patients during rehabilitation has good differentiation, calibration, and clinical utility. The prediction model is simple and practical.
