Effects of Manual Therapy on Fascial Distortion Model in Adolescent Ankle Sprain: A Pilot Study.
Article in Journal of chiropractic medicine. 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
Objectives: The present study aimed to assess the feasibility of investigating the effects of manual therapy on ankle functional muscle strength, static balance, and disability in adolescent patients with an ankle sprain. Methods: The study was a nonrandomized prepost clinical feasibility trial. From September 2021 to February 2022, 31 patients with ankle sprain received manual therapy. Functional muscle strength of plantar flexor muscles and static balance were evaluated using the standing heel-rise and unipedal stance tests on the injured and healthy legs before and after the first and second sessions. Foot and Ankle Disability Index (FADI) assessed the disability at baseline, after the first and second sessions, in the third and sixth weeks. Results: Within-group analysis of the unipedal stance test with open and closed eyes and the standing heel-rise test showed that injured legs significantly improved after the first and second sessions, compared to uninjured legs ( Conclusions: This study demonstrated that a study was feasible to measure ankle functional muscle strength, static balance, and disability in adolescent patients with an ankle sprain.
