Association between knee function and kinesiophobia 6 months after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
Article in Journal of physical therapy science, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
[Purpose] Kinesiophobia after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction has been identified as an inhibitor of return to sports. This study aimed to clarify the relationship between kinesiophobia and knee function 6 months after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction when the patient intends to return to sports. [Participants and Methods] A total of 66 patients who underwent primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (mean age 17.3 ± 2.6 years, 17 males and 49 females, Tegner activity score ≥7) were included in the study. The 11-item version of Tampa scale of kinesiophobia was used to evaluate kinesiophobia 6 months postoperatively. Knee function was evaluated with knee extension muscle strength, tibial anterior displacement, heel buttock distance, heel height difference, anterior knee pain score, and single-leg hop test. The relationship between Tampa scale of kinesiophobia, patient characteristics, and knee function was investigated. [Results] A low Anterior knee pain score and low single-leg hop test, male gender, and age were significant factors associated with kinesiophobia. [Conclusion] Kinesiophobia was associated with a low anterior knee pain score and low single-leg hop test 6 months after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Patients with a low single-leg hop test score or severe pain may need rehabilitation to reduce kinesiophobia.
