Clinical papers were not read directly; existing review summaries were checked. No new clinical-literature search was performed. Unverified does not mean that research is absent or that there is no effect.

## Assessment scope

- Population: The key trial concerned high-risk adults, mean age 81.6 years. Preserved figures are 553 randomized, 527 analyzed, 315 in exercise and 212 in control, with 26 withdrawals described in the narrative. An additional 1 recurrent faller was excluded from exercise. Exact eligibility, baseline risk, arm-specific flows and final event denominators are unverified.
- Ingredient, formulation and route: The selection concerns a stand-alone single-leg standing program. Permission for unstable participants to use a support bar is retained as original research context. Findings from multicomponent balance-and-strength programs or broader balance and functional-exercise verdict 1557 are not transferred as direct evidence. Actual education, supervision, participation and concurrent activities are unverified. No new exercise or treatment methods are provided.
- Dose: Eyes-open standing for 1 minute per leg, 3 times daily, describes research exposure conditions preserved in the original account. Actual participation, adherence, supervision, support-bar use and exposure-specific results are unverified. Preserved conditions are not converted into individual exercise prescriptions, optimal exercise amounts or safe practice methods.
- Comparator: The research narrative records a no-exercise control, while a separate classification field records usual care. Both descriptions are retained without newly certifying equivalent conditions. Actual control activities, concurrent exercise, medication, environmental changes, contact and observation time are unlinked in current material.
- Measured outcome: The selection is reduced cumulative falls over 6 months, retaining original subclaim grade C and absent separate score, status and axes. The 118 versus 121 figures after excluding 1 recurrent faller from exercise are event counts, not faller counts or individual risks. Original reported between-group significance and gaps in exact effects, P values and 95% CI are retained together. Fractures of 1 versus 1, later female-faller findings and the erratum, and null overall BMD are separate outcomes.
- Duration: The key 2006 trial observed participants for 6 months. Exact follow-up duration, female results and erratum details for the 2013 later trial, and long-term persistence data, are unlinked in current material. Research exposure and event follow-up are distinguished; the short-term signal is not extended to later persistent effects or an established prevention method.
- Questions outside this scope: Cumulative events after exclusion are not converted into faller counts, proportions, individual risks or incidence rates.; Unequal analysis populations, pre-exclusion events, final denominators and person-time are not used to calculate new effects, P values or CIs.; Later-trial female-faller findings are not combined as independent confirmation of overall cumulative events in the key trial.; An erratum citation is not converted into a new trial, participants or verified corrected results.; Null fracture and overall BMD findings and a small age subgroup are not combined into different efficacy conclusions for fall events.; The same reports, participants, events and trial families are not newly summed, and unique counts or independence are not certified.; Parent caution wording, permission to use support and efficacy falls do not establish intervention-related harms or long-term safety.; The stand-alone research program is not converted into other multicomponent programs, individual exercise prescriptions or treatment-change instructions.

Efficacy-event counts are not reassigned as intervention-related harm events. This records needed materials; no new research was executed.
- Conditions for verification: Corresponding original material and analysis scope for Intervention-related harms, collection, severity, arm-specific denominators and time must distinguish cumulative events from fallers, individual risk and other outcomes, as well as currently unverified information.
- Why this condition is needed: This condition connects Intervention-related harms, collection, severity, arm-specific denominators and time with populations, exposure, comparators, allocation, exclusions, events, observation time, denominators, prespecification, precision, report relationships or harms for the selected cumulative-falls question.
- Application exceptions: Retain original subclaim C and absent separate score, status and axes without inheriting parent C50 or axes. Event counts after exclusion are not reassigned as fallers, individual risk, fracture prevention or BMD improvement. Later female findings from the same investigators and the erratum provide different context; the erratum is not a new trial. No new effects, P values, CIs, corrected values, totals, independence/safety certification or exercise methods are created.
- Remaining uncertainty: External originals are unread and review of existing content remains incomplete. Exclusion-analysis limitations and precision gaps remain, retaining original subclaim C. Gaps in currently preserved material are not extended to absence across all literature or new judgments of efficacy, safety or independence.
- Referenced methods: Preserved application conditions concerning questions, populations, allocation, exclusions, denominators, events versus individual outcomes, precision, reports versus trials and harms were referenced.

Materials actually read: Stored summary read; external materials unread  
Findings recorded in the summary: Falls 118 versus 121 after excluding 1 recurrent faller from exercise; fractures 1 versus 1  
Record level: The key 6-month cumulative-event report retains 553 randomized, 527 analyzed, 315 versus 212, 26 withdrawals and 118 versus 121 events after an additional 1 recurrent-faller exclusion. Final event denominators, pre-exclusion results, exact effects and CIs are unverified.  
Independent replication: These report groups link preserved evidence entries and citations. The key cumulative-event report is distinguished from the same investigators' later faller report, with the erratum linked to the later trial family. The separate BMD trial is not direct replication of the selected fall-event question. Unique trial, participant, event and independent-replication totals are unverified and are not summed.

## What the statuses mean

- Met: A state used when required evidence is confirmed after user review. This production does not declare that review complete.
- Partly verified: Some information in the stored summary is linked into the table. External comparison/content review is not complete.
- Unverified: The article leaves this unverified, or required material is absent from the current stored summary. This is distinct from zero, absence or safety.
- Review incomplete: User review pending.
- Not reported: Not reported within the stored material actually read; not extended to the entire primary paper.
- Inaccessible: Means an actual access failure. Access not attempted here is not assigned this state.
- Not applicable: Not used as a substitute for an evidence gap.
- Conflicting data: Requires an observed disagreement under the same comparison criteria; not automatically judged in this production.
- Insufficient evidence for the conditions: Marks a gap in additional material required by the selected conditions; not a new efficacy grade.
