Cognitive and gait in Wilson's disease: a cognitive and motor dual-task study.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Background: Cognitive and motor dual-tasks play important roles in daily life. Dual-task interference impacting gait performance has been observed not only in healthy subjects but also in subjects with neurological disorders. Approximately 44-75% of Wilson's disease (WD) patients have gait disturbance. According to our earlier research, 59.7% of WD patients have cognitive impairment. However, there are few studies on how cognition affects the gait in WD. Therefore, this study aims to explore the influence of cognitive impairment on gait and its neural mechanism in WD patients and to provide evidence for the clinical intervention of gait disturbance. Methods: We recruited 63 patients who were divided into two groups based on their scores on the Addenbrooke's cognitive examination III (ACE-III) scale: a non-cognitive impairment group and a cognitive impairment group. In addition to performing the timed up and go (TUG) single task and the cognitive and motor dual-task digital calculation and animal naming tests, the Tinetti Balance and Gait Assessment (POMA), Berg Balance Scale (BBS), and brain MRI severity scale of WD (bMRIsc-WD) were evaluated. The dual-task cost (DTC) was also computed. Between the two groups, the results of the enhanced POMA, BBS, and bMRIsc-WD scales, as well as gait performance measures such as TUG step size, pace speed, pace frequency, and DTC value, were compared. Results: (1) Among the 63 patients with WD, 30 (47.6%) patients had gait disturbance, and the single task TUG time was more than 10 s. A total of 43 patients had cognitive impairment, the incidence rate is 44.4%. Furthermore, 28 (44.4%) patients had cognitive impairment, 39 (61.9%) patients had abnormal brain MRI. (2) The Tinetti gait balance scale and Berg balance scale scores of patients with cognitive impairment were lower than those of patients without cognitive impairment ( Conclusion: WD patients had a high incidence of cognitive impairment and gait disorder, the pace speed and step size can reflect the cognitive impairment of WD patients, cognitive impairment affects the gait disorder of WD patients, and the different cognitive and motor dual-tasks were involved in affecting gait parameters. The joint participation of cognitive impairment and lesion brain area may be the principal neural mechanism of gait abnormality in WD patients.
