Dynamic response of medial meniscus extrusion to the lateral wedge insole is correlated with immediate pain reduction in knee osteoarthritis patients: real-time ultrasonographic study.

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
purposeTo investigate the effect of lateral wedge insole (LWI) on medial meniscus extrusion (MME) observed during dynamic evaluation with ultrasound and its correlation with the alteration in knee pain in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA).
methodsThis cohort study included 25 participants with knee OA. The medial meniscus was imaged during walking in video mode using ultrasonography. The degree of increase in MME (ΔMME) was calculated as the difference in the value of the maximum and minimum MME. The intensity of knee pain was evaluated immediately after the walking trial using the visual analogue scale (VAS). These measurements were performed with and without the LWI. The participants were categorised into the responder group, which was identified by the constant reduction in the VAS, and the non-responder group.
resultsMME, ΔMME, and knee pain during walking were significantly lower with the LWI than without the LWI (p < 0.01). The reduction in ΔMME with the LWI in the responder group was significantly higher than that in the non-responder group (p < 0.01).
conclusionsOur findings showed that MME and knee pain during walking decreased with LWI use, especially in patients whose reduction in knee pain was characterised by inhibition in the increase in MME observed during dynamic evaluation with ultrasound.
