Gait Biomechanics with Portable EMG Biofeedback at Increasing Muscle-Activation Goals: Walking Speed, Propulsion, Braking, and Step Length.
Article in Sensors (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
Portable electromyography biofeedback (EMG-BFB) may support gait rehabilitation, but whole-gait responses across increasing portable auditory feedback goals are unclear. Twenty-four adults completed baseline treadmill walking and four counterbalanced right medial gastrocnemius activation-goal conditions set at 20%, 40%, 60%, and 80% above baseline; 23 contributed primary biomechanical data. Treadmill speed was adjusted within each condition to support achievement of the activation goal. Outcomes included walking speed, ground-reaction forces, force-time metrics, step length, temporal measures, and asymmetry. Repeated-measures MANOVA, outcome-specific repeated-measures ANOVAs, dose-response coefficients, bootstrap intervals, and leave-one-participant-out analyses were used. The combined gait-biomechanics outcomes differed significantly across activation-goal conditions (
