Loss of Motor Stability After Sports-Related Concussion: Opportunities for Motor Learning Strategies to Reduce Musculoskeletal Injury Risk.
Review in Sports medicine (Auckland, N.Z.), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Current best practices to direct recovery after sports-related concussion (SRC) typically require asymptomatic presentation at both rest and during a graduated exercise progression, and cognitive performance resolution. However, this standard of care results in a significantly elevated risk for musculoskeletal (MSK) injury after return-to-sport (RTS). The elevated risk is likely secondary to, in part, residual neurophysiological and dual-task motor stability deficits that remain despite RTS. These deficits present as a loss of autonomous control of gait and posture and an increased need for cognition for motor stability. Thus, the incorporation of strategies that can enhance motor stability and restore autonomous control of gait and posture during SRC recovery and RTS progression may facilitate a reduction of the elevated risk of secondary MSK injury. We provide a theoretical framework for the application of motor learning principles to restore autonomous gait and postural stability after SRC via incorporation, or targeted manipulation, of external focus, enhanced expectations, autonomy support, practice schedule variability, and dual-task strategies during rehabilitation and RTS training.
