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

Background: This study aimed to investigate the effect of limited foot and ankle mobility on the lateral stability of gait through the observation of the mediolateral margin of stability and related kinematic parameters. Methods: Thirty young, healthy participants walked at a fixed gait velocity on a level surface. Participants achieved different degrees of restricted mobility by wearing soft-soled shoes (S), an ankle-foot orthosis with unrestricted dorsiflexion-plantarflexion activity only (A), and an ankle-foot orthosis with unrestricted dorsiflexion-plantarflexion and adjustable horizontal rotation of the foot (OU/OR). Furthermore, the spatiotemporal parameters, mediolateral margin of stability, center of pressure, angle of the fore and hind foot relative to the tibia, and correlation coefficients of the factors were analyzed. Regression analysis was also performed. Results: At right heel strike, group A had a significantly lower mediolateral margin of stability than group S and group OU. Meanwhile, forefoot adduction (0.2 < | Conclusions: The present study verified from gait data that forefoot dorsiflexion and supination at the initial contact of the stance phase were relevant factors for the differences in lateral gait stability, whereas abduction and plantar flexion of the forefoot at the terminal stance phase were the main influencing factors of lateral gait stability.
