Recent advances in the management of chronic ankle instability.
Review in Chinese journal of traumatology = Zhonghua chuang shang za zhi, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Ankle sprains are the most common lesion of the ankle joint which might result in chronic ankle instability (CAI). Significant strides have been taken to enhance our comprehension of the underlying mechanisms of CAI, as the exploration of novel surgical techniques and the identification of previously unrecognized anatomical components. The present review aims to provide an extensive overview of CAI, encompassing its pathophysiology, epidemiology, clinical assessment, treatment, and rehabilitation. Treatment of CAI requires a multifaceted algorithm, involving historical analysis, clinical evaluations, and diagnostic imaging. Surgical interventions for CAI primarily involve the anatomical and/or non-anatomical reconstruction and/or repair of the anterior talofibular ligament. Anatomical repair has exhibited superior functional outcomes and a reduced risk of secondary osteoarthritis compared to non-anatomical repair. Non-anatomical approaches fall short of replicating the normal biomechanics of the anterior talofibular ligament, potentially leading to postoperative stiffness. This review seeks to academically review and up-to-date literature on this issue, tailored for clinical practice, with the intent of aiding surgeons in staying abreast of this critical subject matter.
