Biomechanical analysis of gait initiation in stroke survivors based on a modified phase segmentation method.

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
Purpose: This study aims to explore the characteristics of gait initiation in stroke patients with hemiplegia across various phases by proposing a refined gait initiation phase segmentation method tailored to this population. Additionally, the study investigates the correlation between gait initiation parameters and clinical assessment scales to evaluate their clinical value in development of functional assessment and rehabilitation strategies. Methods: A total of 34 patients with hemiparetic stroke and 34 age- and sex-matched healthy controls participated in the study. All participants performed gait initiation with each limb three times. Ground reaction force, center of pressure (COP), and kinematic data were recorded using a gait analysis system. The gait initiation process was divided into four phases based on COP trajectory and movement features. Step length, step width, initial paretic limb loading, duration and COP displacement across various phases, and the peak ( Results: Stroke patients exhibited increased step width and total initiation duration ( Conclusion: Refined phase segmentation provided additional insight: impaired anticipatory postural adjustment capacity during gait initiation after stroke was reflected by prolonged P2 and reduced COP displacement in P1. Biomechanical parameters of gait initiation may serve as objective indicators of motor function and inform rehabilitation strategies in stroke patients.
