The AERO prosthetic liner: socket pressure distribution, comfort and material composition.
Article in Annals of medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
purposeThis study aimed to evaluate the pressure distribution and comfort of transtibial prosthesis wearers using an affordable ethyl-vinyl acetate (EVA) roll-on (AERO) liner.
methodFifteen unilateral transtibial prosthesis users wore patella tendon bearing (PTB) sockets with a polyethylene foam (PE-lite) liner were enrolled this study. AERO liners were provided to all participants. Six force sensors were applied to the residual limb to evaluate pressure distribution during treadmill walking, and the socket comfort score (SCS) was used to evaluate comfortability. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy was performed on the EVA and PE-lite liners.
resultsEleven participants used prefabricated AERO liners and four participants used custom-made AERO liners. The pressure distribution was analysed by the coefficient of variation (CV): PE-lite was 75.7 ± 6.0 and AERO liner 83.3 ± 4.1. Residual limb pressure was significantly decreased when using the AERO liner (
conclusionBetter pressure distribution and comfort were observed when the participants used the AERO liner. AERO had a greater proportion of calcium carbonate (CaCO
