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

Lateral ankle sprain is a common injury with a substantial negative impact on physical function, quality of life and health economic burden. Chronic lateral ankle instability (CLAI) as a sequela of lateral ankle sprain can lead to the development of posttraumatic ankle osteoarthritis in the long term. In this article, we explore the epidemiology, burden and definition of CLAI for the appropriate clinical assessment and imaging evaluation of patients with lateral ankle sprain and CLAI. Following that, recent advances and evidence on management of CLAI is critically distilled and summarized.
