1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundStroke-related impairments in balance and gait are among the most common and disabling sequelae, significantly limiting functional independence and increasing fall risk. This study investigated the effects of short-term dynamic balance training on balance and gait in post-stroke hemiplegic patients.

methodsIn this randomized controlled pilot trial, 16 post-stroke hemiplegic patients (intervention group,

resultsFollowing the intervention, both groups demonstrated improvements; however, the intervention group showed significantly greater gains in balance and gait outcomes. Specifically, Berg Balance Scale scores improved significantly (

conclusionsSupplementing conventional rehabilitation with dynamic balance training effectively enhances balance and gait function in post-stroke patients, potentially through improved neuromuscular control. The integration of sensor-based COP analysis and sEMG provides additional mechanistic insight into rehabilitation outcomes.
