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

This study aimed to conduct an initial validation of markerless gait analysis using SPLYZA Motion by evaluating waveform agreement under practical measurement conditions. Joint angle waveforms were compared with those obtained from a marker-based motion capture system. SPLYZA Motion was found to be in good waveform agreement with the reference system for trunk and proximal lower-limb kinematics. Larger errors were observed in distal joints, particularly under occlusion and higher cadence; however, these differences were phase-dependent and did not substantially affect overall waveform patterns. These findings suggest that SPLYZA Motion may serve as a complementary tool for repeated waveform-based gait assessments under practical measurement conditions. Further validation in larger and more diverse populations is required before broader clinical application can be considered.
