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.

2 · The registry

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

In the study of biomechanical models, balance represents a complex problem due to the issue of indeterminate forces while standing. In order to solve this problem, it is essential to measure the ground reaction forces (GRFs) applied to each foot independently. The present work proposes a methodology for determining the independent GRF applied to each foot while standing when only one forceplate is available. For this purpose, an analytical method is proposed to determine the distribution of vertical GRFs and the position of the independent center of pressure (CoP) in each foot. Concurrently, several neural network (NN) models are trained to improve the results obtained. This hypothesis is experimentally validated by a self-developed device that allows one to simultaneously obtain the vertical GRF and CoP location of each foot at the same time that the GRF and the global CoP location are obtained from a single forceplate. The results obtained achieve a CoP position error of less than 8% and a vertical force error of 2%. The analytical hypothesis is demonstrated to offer a satisfactory level of precision, while the NN is shown to result in considerable improvement in some cases.
