Implementation of relative phase analysis to evaluate continuous interlimb coordination and stability in individuals with lower limb loss: Design and protocol for a retrospective analysis.

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
introductionThe number of people with lower limb loss continues to grow, though most research to date has been non-committal and lacks the appropriate clinical guidance required for proper prosthetic prescription. Previous literature using traditional spatiotemporal and biomechanical measures has not accurately identified differences in gait patterns when using different prosthetic devices. Therefore, a knowledge gap remains. To aid in determining the impact of different devices on gait in individuals with lower limb loss, a more sensitive quantitative measure should be used to supplement traditional biomechanical analyses. Continuous measures of coordination and stability, evaluated using relative phase analysis, has been shown to detect changes in gait patterns when traditional variables cannot. However, these measures have yet to be fully assessed in this population. This investigation will fill the knowledge gap by using relative phase analysis to provide a comprehensive description of kinematic behaviour by evaluating continuous interlimb coordination and stability for individuals with lower limb loss. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: Biomechanical analysis of individuals with lower limb loss during walking activities will be evaluated using relative phase analysis to identify the continuous interlimb coordination and stability relationships between the upper and lower extremities of these individuals. Three-dimensional motion capture will enable kinematic properties of movement to be captured and analysed. Non-traditional measures of analysis will be used. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: This study was approved by the Veterans Affairs New York Harbor Healthcare System Institutional Review Board (IRBNet #1573135, MIRB #1775). Findings will be disseminated through peer-reviewed publications, academic conference presentations, invited workshops, webinars and seminars.
