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
Objective: The purpose of this case study was to report the chiropractic management of a teenage athlete who had chronic pain after a lateral ankle sprain. Clinical Features: A 15-year-old male patient presented with persistent ankle pain due to an inversion sprain while playing soccer approximately 8.5 months prior. Emergency department records noted a left lateral ankle sprain, including the anterior talofibular ligament, calcaneofibular ligament, and posterior talofibular ligament. The examination revealed ankle tenderness upon palpation, limited active and passive dorsiflexion range of motion, restricted talocrural joint posterior glide, and moderate lateral compartment muscular hypertonicity. Intervention and Outcome: Chiropractic management included high-velocity, low-amplitude chiropractic ankle manipulation and education on home-based ankle dorsiflexion stretching. After 4 treatments, the athlete returned to unencumbered athletic participation. Follow-up evaluation at 5 months revealed no pain or functional complaints. Conclusion: This teen athlete's chronic pain from a lateral ankle sprain resolved with a short course of chiropractic manipulation coupled with home-based stretching.
