The association between specific cognitive domains function and gait performance or postural control in post-stroke participants: a cross-sectional study.
Article in Frontiers in neurology. 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
Background: Stroke survivors frequently experience cognitive dysfunction, impaired postural control, and gait impairments, significantly impacting physical abilities and hinders their ability to live independently. Although cognitive impairment exacerbates motor deficits, existing research primarily examines global cognition or executive function, with limited focus on domain-specific cognitive association. This study aims to investigate the distinct relationships between specific cognitive domains and both gait performance and postural control in stroke survivors. Methods: Thirty-three acute and subacute stroke participants (mean age 63.94 ± 10.3 years, 60.6% male, mean post-stroke duration 2.97 ± 2.86 months) underwent standardized assessments: Executive function (Shape Trail Test, STT), attention (Symbol Digit Modalities Test, SDMT), Visuospatial ability and memory (Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure Test, ROCFT), gait (10-Meter Walk Test, 10MWT, Timed Up and Go Test, TUG), and postural control (NeuroCom Balance System parameters: Movement Velocity (MVL), Max Excursions (MXE), and Directional Control (DCL)). Domain-specific associations between cognitive functions and gait performance or postural control were analyzed using multiple linear regression, with adjustment for age, sex, time since onset, stroke type, and hemiparetic side. Results: The results revealed that better executive function significantly predicted faster MVL and greater MXE during postural control ( Conclusion: Impairments in specific cognitive domains differentially correlate with gait and postural control, underscoring the need for integrated cognitive-motor rehabilitation in acute and subacute stroke.
