The association between cognitive function and physical performance in established users of a lower limb prosthesis.
Article in Irish journal of medical science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundCognitive abilities are important for mobility functions in individuals with amputation.
aimsTo investigate the association between cognitive function and physical performance in established users of a lower limb prosthesis.
methodsThis prospective cross-sectional study was included established users of a lower limb prosthesis (N = 62; mean age ± SD, 41.33 ± 14.76 years). The Montreal Cognitive Assessment was used to evaluate cognitive function. The Timed Up and Go Test under single-task and dual-task conditions, the Four Square Step Test, and the 3-m Backward Walk Test were used for physical performance assessment.
resultsAn independent association was found of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment to the dual task Timed Up and Go Test (AdjR
conclusionsThe results of this study revealed an independent association between global cognitive function and functional mobility under dual-task conditions, dynamic balance, and backward walking performance in established users of a lower limb prosthesis. These results emphasize that cognitive functions should be taken into account in interventions aimed at improving challenging physical performance in established users of a lower limb prosthesis.
