1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeAbnormal movement patterns and neuromuscular impairments at the ankle are thought to contribute to ankle joint degeneration in those with chronic ankle instability. However, these impairments are not confided to the ankle; rather, proximal neuromuscular deficiencies at the knee and aberrant movement patterns, thought to be responsible for reductions in knee joint health, have also been identified. While neuromuscular impairments and self-reported functional limitations have been examined in those with chronic ankle instability, patient-generated symptoms associated with joint health of the ankle and knee have not been investigated. Therefore, the purpose was to compare perceived ankle and knee joint health in individuals with and without chronic ankle instability.

methodsThe Ankle Osteoarthritis Scale and the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score assessed region-specific ankle and knee joint health.

resultsParticipants with chronic ankle instability reported more ankle pain (P < 0.001) and disability (P < 0.001) than the control group. Chronic ankle instability individuals also reported worse knee joint health (P < 0.05).

conclusionsThe increased symptomology associated with decreased ankle joint health further supports information demonstrating joint degeneration in young adults with chronic ankle instability. The decreased perceived knee joint health provides preliminary evidence of the negative impact proximal neuromuscular impairments associated with chronic ankle instability that may have on joints other than the ankle. Assessing subjective ankle and knee joint function can guide clinicians in developing individualized rehabilitation by providing them with an understanding if a patient presenting with chronic ankle instability suffers from symptoms arising from more than just the ankle. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Case-control, Level III.
