"I was angry that I fell" all the way to "if I fall, I fall": a qualitative study of the spectrum of behavioral fall risk factors for veterans with dysvascular lower-limb amputation.
Article in Disability and rehabilitation, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeTo explore behavioral risk factors contributing to fall and near-fall scenarios for Veterans with dysvascular lower-limb amputation. MATERIALS AND
methodsParticipants were a convenience sample of Veterans with unilateral dysvascular lower-limb amputation, receiving care at a single Veterans Administration Regional Amputation Center, who participated in an interview (12/2021-04/2023). We used phenomenological research and directed content analysis to explore participant perspectives on fall scenarios. Two frameworks informed
resultsTwenty-one veterans completed interviews. Five themes were identified that were salient across a behavioral fall risk factor spectrum from low to high: self-efficacy, trust in the prosthesis, dual-task awareness, participation, and emotional regulation, and one theme pertaining to context surrounding the index fall.
conclusionDifferent levels of behavioral fall risk factors exist for Veterans with dysvascular lower-limb amputation. Understanding individuals' perceptions of these behavioral risk factors is important as a first step in developing comprehensive fall-risk management rehabilitation interventions for Veterans with amputation.
