Interim results of exoskeletal wearable robot for gait recovery in subacute stroke patients.
Trial report in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05157347 (Effect of Overground Gait Training Using a Torgue-Assisted Exoskeletal Wearable Device on Ambulatory Function in Subacute Stroke Patients, Multi-Center, Randomized Single-blinded Controlled Prospective Pilot Study), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
Exoskeletons have been proposed for potential clinical use to improve ambulatory function in patients with stroke. The aim of an interim analysis of an international, multicenter, randomized, controlled trial was to investigate the short-term effect of overground gait training using a torque-assisted exoskeleton in subacute stroke patients with severe ambulatory functional impairment. Data from a total of 93 subacute stroke patients with severe ambulatory functional impairment were analyzed. All participants received a total of 20 sessions; five sessions per week for 4 weeks. The robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) group received 30 min of conventional gait training and 30 min of gait training using an exoskeleton (ANGEL LEGS M20, Angel robotics, Co., Ltd.), while the control group received 60 min of conventional gait training. Functional assessments were conducted before and immediately after the final intervention by a rater blinded to group assignment. Overground gait training with a torque-assisted exoskeleton in this study showed improvement in gait function comparable to conventional gait rehabilitation in subacute stroke patients, with additional gains in lower extremity strength. These findings suggest that the overground gait training with a torque-assisted exoskeleton might be a potential intervention for subacute stroke patients.Clinical Trial Registration: NCT05157347 (the first registration (10/12/2021)).
