Clinical gait analysis use in management of children with cerebral palsy: Qualitative study.
Article in Developmental medicine and child neurology, 2026. 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
aimTo identify the barriers and facilitators that shape how clinical gait analysis (CGA) informs family decision-making in different contexts.
methodA qualitative descriptive study design was chosen to explore the current clinical landscape. Semistructured interviews were conducted with 15 healthcare professionals and eight caregivers (n = 23) from three pediatric rehabilitation centers in Quebec, Canada, that provide CGA to children with cerebral palsy. Data were analyzed thematically with an inductive approach using NVivo software.
resultsKey barriers include a lack of structure, limited financial and human resources, and restricted access to CGA. The primary facilitators are healthcare professionals and caregivers who aim to enhance the care process by more effectively integrating CGA. Other common topics include the benefits of care management with CGA and the need to clarify the expertise required to ensure the optimal functioning and clinical application of a gait laboratory.
interpretationParticipants emphasized the importance of addressing disparities, securing institutional support, and promoting intercenter collaboration to achieve sustainable improvements in the care of ambulatory children with cerebral palsy.
