From Optical to AI-Driven Markerless Motion Capture in Motor Learning and Rehabilitation.
Review in Bioengineering (Basel, Switzerland), 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
Traditional biomechanical analysis is constrained by high capital costs and the physical limitations imposed by markers, posing significant barriers to clinical adoption. This review evaluates the emergence of artificial intelligence (AI)-based markerless motion capture (MMC) as a transformative approach for democratizing movement science in clinical rehabilitation. The discussion outlines the progression from legacy geometric visual hulls to advanced deep learning architectures, with particular focus on YOLO-based two-dimensional detection and spatio-temporal transformer models for three-dimensional pose estimation. Evidence indicates that multi-camera MMC frameworks achieve research-grade positional accuracy (16-34 mm Mean Per-Joint Position Error-MPJPE), while monocular systems provide sufficient sensitivity (82-88%) for longitudinal monitoring of geriatric fall risk and stroke recovery. While challenges persist in achieving precise axial rotation measurement, integrating real-time signal refinement enables objective and ecologically valid assessments in community-based healthcare settings. This technological advancement redefines movement analysis, shifting it from a laboratory-bound procedure to a widely accessible and interoperable diagnostic tool.
