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

objectiveKnee valgus during jump landing is a cause of knee injuries during sports activities. Body recognition is important for maintaining the knees and other body parts in their proper positions. The aim of this study was to investigate whether knee valgus during jump landing in healthy young women is related to the inaccuracy of recognition of bilateral knee positions in the squatting position.

methodsIn 39 healthy young women, the degree of knee valgus was evaluated during the drop vertical jump test using the ratio of the knee separation distance to the ankle separation distance. The accuracy of recognition of bilateral knee positions in the squatting position was evaluated by having the blindfolded subjects indicate with their index fingers the subjective positions of their bilateral patellae by placing their fingers on a horizontal bar positioned in front of them 3 cm below the navel. The difference ratio of the recognized distance to the actual distance between the bilateral patellae was measured as an inaccuracy index.

resultsThe degree of knee valgus during the drop vertical jump test was positively correlated with the degree of inaccuracy of the recognized knee position with the knees in the neutral position (r=0.358, P=0.025).

conclusionsIn healthy young women, knee valgus during jump landing was significantly correlated with the inaccuracy in knee position recognition in the squatting posture. This finding suggests that the assessment of knee position recognition in the squatting position could be useful as a screening tool for preventing knee injuries on jump landing during sports activities.
