Postural control in early stages of Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

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
objectiveTo verify whether there is an increase in the center of pressure (COP) displacement velocity and area in individuals with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) in Vignos stages 2 and 3, assessed under different sensory conditions; to verify whether COP displacement velocity and area increase within the same Vignos stage with changes in sensory conditions during postural control assessment.
methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted with individuals with DMD in Vignos stages 2 and 3, aged between 7 and 19 years old (mean 9.58, SD±3.22). Postural control was assessed using the Wii Balance Board and a modified sensory organization test. COP displacement velocity and area were recorded. Independent samples t-tests were performed to compare the average values of these variables between Vignos 2 and 3 under each sensory condition and within the same Vignos stage across different sensory conditions.
resultsNo significant difference were found in any analyzed variable between Vignos 2 and 3. However. A significant difference was observed when comparing sensory condition 1 with condition 4, within the same disease stage.
conclusionsDespite the decrease in muscle strength from Vignos 2 to 3, participants were able to employ motor strategies to maintain postural control. However, postural control performance significantly worsens with changes in sensory conditions within the same Vignos stage.
