M-mode ultrasound evaluation of lateral abdominal muscle postural response to load: an exploratory study.
Article in Journal of ultrasonography, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Aim: There is a need to evaluate the tissue deformation index of lateral abdominal muscles using M-mode ultrasound in a cohort of healthy subjects to establish a convenient reference point for clinical reasoning in patients. The aim of the study was to assess differences in the tissue deformation index between individual lateral abdominal muscles regardless of body side, compare these differences in the tissue deformation index on the right and left sides of the body, and evaluate side-to-side differences in the tissue deformation index within individual lateral abdominal muscles. Material and methods: In a group of 126 healthy volunteers (59 females), the postural response of lateral abdominal muscles to external perturbation in the form of rapid arm abduction with load was recorded on both sides of the body, and the tissue deformation index was calculated. Results: The mean values of the tissue deformation index form an increasing gradient from deep to superficial lateral abdominal muscles: 0.06%/ms for the transversus abdominis, 0.084%/ms for the internal oblique and 0.151%/ms for the external oblique ( Conclusions: The tissue deformation index values differ significantly among individual lateral abdominal muscles and form a characteristic gradient: transversus abdominis < internal oblique < external oblique. The transversus abdominis muscle shows significant asymmetry in the tissue deformation index between the left and right sides of the body.
