Phase-Specific Ground Reaction Force Analyses of Bilateral and Unilateral Jumps in Patients With ACL Reconstruction.
Article in Orthopaedic journal of sports medicine, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
backgroundIn patients who have undergone anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, there is a weak correlation between subjective evaluation of knee function on questionnaires and clinical or biomechanical test results. HYPOTHESIS: Patients with lower subjective knee function will demonstrate lower ground-reaction forces (GRFs) in the operated leg and greater GRF asymmetries in both phase-specific and functional data analysis (FDA) approaches compared with patients with higher subjective knee function. STUDY
designDescriptive laboratory study.
methodsThe GRFs of the operated and nonoperated legs of 40 patients who previously underwent ACL reconstruction (patellar tendon) were analyzed during unilateral and bilateral countermovement jumps at a mean 2.5 years after surgery. The patients were separated into 2 groups depending on their International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) Subjective Form score: low IKDC and high IKDC.
resultsBoth phase-specific and FDA approaches showed lower GRF values in the operated compared with the nonoperated leg within the low-IKDC group during bilateral jumps. Moreover, lower GRF values were also present in the operated and nonoperated legs in the low-IKDC group compared with those of the high-IKDC group. Differences in GRFs were predominantly observed during the eccentric deceleration phase of jumping.
conclusionPatients with previous ACL reconstruction who have limited subjective knee function have lower GRF values and greater GRF asymmetries, suggesting the use of interlimb compensation strategies. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: The study results lead to a better understanding of the motor control needed during the eccentric and concentric movement phases of unilateral and bilateral jumps in patients who have undergone ACL reconstruction.
