Adjoint sensitivity method for parameter estimation: applications to inverted pendulum and human standing balance.
Article in Journal of the Royal Society, Interface, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The inverted pendulum, a classical mechanical system, often serves as a platform for studying stability and control algorithms. Modelling human standing balance as an inverted pendulum controlled by the time-delayed proportional-derivative (PD) feedback controller can be used effectively to study the related biomechanical mechanisms. In this study, to investigate the human balance control strategy, an adjoint sensitivity analysis method and a corresponding optimizer are implemented to directly determine system parameters, control gains and the time delay in the human balancing model. This study validates the accuracy of the optimizer through numerical simulations and experimental verification based on the physical model of the inverted pendulum on a cart. The experimental results confirm the performance of the identification algorithm for systems involving non-smooth dynamics and inherent time delays. Moreover, the identification based on human balance data indicates that the time-delayed PD feedback controller effectively represents the human balance control strategy. Additionally, the identification reveals a tendency in the control strategy: the control gains are located in the lower-left region of the stability diagram, indicating that the human body tends to adopt an optimal control strategy that minimizes energy consumption.
