The influence of pain exacerbation on rear foot eversion and plantar pressure symmetry in women with patellofemoral pain: a cross sectional study.
Article in BMC musculoskeletal disorders, 2025. 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
backgroundThe patellofemoral joint (PFJ) stress as a primary mechanical stimulus in the patellofemoral pain (PFP) etiology is affected by plantar pressure symmetry. This study evaluated how pain exacerbation affects rear foot eversion and plantar pressure distribution symmetry.
methodSixty women with PFP participated in this study. Pain intensity, rear foot eversion, and plantar pressure were evaluated in the two conditions with and without pain exacerbation during double-leg squats. The MANOVA test was used to compare pain intensity, rear foot eversion, and plantar pressure symmetry between the two conditions. The Pearson correlation was used to evaluate the relationship between the pain intensity with the rear foot eversion and the plantar pressure symmetry.
resultsThe comparison between the two conditions showed a significant difference in pain intensity (P < 0.001, η
conclusionsAfter the pain exacerbation, the rear foot eversion was greater, and plantar pressure asymmetrical was observed, which can help in the development of PFP severity.
