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

objectiveTo compare the differences in ankle joint parameters of basketball athletes between the forefoot and rearfoot landing and to investigate the injury mechanism of ankle joints in different landing modes.

methodsTwenty level II male basketball athletes were selected as subjects in this study. The landing movements of these athletes were assigned into a forefoot landing mode and a rearfoot landing mode. The former includes movements such as running emergency stop, two-leg jump and forefoot landing, while the latter includes actions such as running emergency stop, two-leg jump and rearfoot landing. The motion capture system and three-dimensional force measuring table were used for collecting the kinematic and dynamic data of the subjects.

resultsThe initial landing angles, including ankle dorsiflexion and medial ankle rotation of the forefoot were larger than those of the rearfoot (all P<0.05). Compared to those in the rearfoot landing mode, the forefoot landing exhibited a greater peak angle of ankle plantar flexion and ankle varus, as well as a smaller peak angle of ankle dorsiflexion and ankle internal rotation (all P<0.05). In comparison to the rearfoot landing mode, the forefoot landing showed a larger range of ankle varus and valgus, as well as a smaller range of ankle dorsiflexion and plantar flexion (all P<0.05). The ankle plantar flexion torque of forefoot landing was higher than that of rearfoot landing, while the peak ankle dorsiflexion torque of forefoot landing was smaller than that of rearfoot landing (all P<0.05). Compared to those in the rearfoot landing mode, the outward peak ground reaction force was smaller and the forward peak ground reaction was larger in forefoot landing mode (all P<0.05). No obvious differences were observed in other indicators between two landing modes.

conclusionsThere are kinematic and dynamic differences between the forefoot and rearfoot landing. Forefoot landing may increase the risk of ankle injury during landing.
