Calibration of the shear wave speed-stress relationship in in situ Achilles tendons using cadaveric simulations of gait and isometric contraction.
Article in Journal of biomechanics, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
It has been shown that shear wave speed is directly dependent on axial stress in ex vivo tendons. Hence, a wave speed sensor could be used to track tendon loading during movement. However, adjacent soft tissues and varying joint postures may affect the wave speed-load relationship for intact tendons. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the proportional relationship between squared wave speed and stress holds for in situ cadaveric Achilles tendons, to evaluate whether this relationship is affected by joint angle, and to assess potential calibration techniques. Achilles tendon wave speed and loading were simultaneously measured during cadaveric simulations of gait and isometric contractions performed in a robotic gait simulator. Squared wave speed and axial stress were highly correlated during isometric contraction at all ankle postures (R
