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

[Purpose] We investigated the effects of a specifically designed exercise program that focused on the arches of the foot and the forefoot (the "Building Osteo Neatly Exercise" program) in college-aged females. [Participants and Methods] Forty college-aged females were divided randomly into experimental and control groups. The experimental group underwent the Building Osteo Neatly Exercise program for 60 min once a week for 4 months. In both groups, the plantar pressure distribution and quantitative ultrasound parameters of the calcaneus (speed of sound and bone area ratio) were evaluated at the beginning and end of the study. The plantar pressure distribution during walking was measured using a pressure plate to evaluate the deviation from the ideal values for the following: contact time, contact duration, peak pressure time, and foot pressure, all measured in the rear foot (the external and internal sides), medial forefoot including (the hallux and second and third toes), and lateral forefoot (the fourth and fifth toes). [Results] After completing the program, the speed of sound and bone area ratio had increased significantly in the experimental group and were significantly higher than those in the control group. The experimental group showed significant improvements in the deviations from the ideal values in contact time and contact duration in the medial forefoot, all four parameters in the lateral forefoot, and pressure in the rear foot. [Conclusion] College-aged females who participated in the Building Osteo Neatly Exercise program once weekly for 4 months exhibited significant improvements in bone strength in the calcaneus and in foot function, as shown by the plantar pressure distribution. Further studies are needed to examine the outcomes of the Building Osteo Neatly Exercise program in an elderly population.
