Posture control characteristics of different age groups in China based on Bertec

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
Objective: To establish the first normative dataset for postural control in Chinese adults using Bertec Methods: This cross-sectional study recruited 48 healthy Chinese adults stratified into four age decades (18-35, 36-45, 46-60, and 61-75 years). Participants attended three laboratory visits: the first two for screening and task familiarization, and the third for formal testing on the sensory organization test (SOT) and rhythmic weight shift (RWS) using computerized dynamic posturography (CDP), with 3-7 days between visits. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA with Results: Significant age-related declines were observed in the Composite Score (CS: rs = -0.532, Conclusion: Postural control demonstrated a significant age-related decline in this cohort. Notably, individuals over 45 years exhibited a diminished capacity to integrate visual and vestibular information for complex balance tasks and visually guided motor control. This study provides essential normative data for clinical assessment in the Chinese population and underscores the need for population-specific benchmarks.
