Kinematic and sensory-motor analysis of the effects of treatments with photobiomodulation in rats with experimentally induced spinal injury.
Article in Lasers in medical science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The aim of this study was to evaluate the kinematic and sensorimotor parameters after application of photobiomodulation (PBM) in rats with experimentally induced spinal cord injuries (SCI). The animals were randomly divided into 3 experimental groups containing 5 animals each and respecting the following arrangement: C (control, simulation of surgical procedures); I (injury, induction of SCI) and PBM (photobiomodulation, SCI + application of photobiomodulation therapy). All animals underwent movement tests after 3, 7, 10 and 14 days, respectively, after the surgical procedure, and the following movement parameters were evaluated: mean velocity (MV), ground reaction force (GRF) and sciatic functional index (SFI) using integrated equipment capable of digitally collecting the proposed data. The mean results of the MV data obtained by groups C, I and PBM were compared and a statistically significant difference was found, being: C x I (p = 0.001) and I x PBM (p = 0.002), respectively. Considering the SFI data obtained by groups C, I and PBM, a statistically significant difference was observed when comparing C x I (p = 0.011). The mean results of the GRF data obtained by groups C, I and PBM were compared and the results showed a statistically significant difference in C x I (p = 0.001), C x PBM (p = 0.026) and I x PBM (p = 0.002), respectively. Therefore, there was an improvement in motor function between the 7th and 14th day after SCI, represented by the increase in speed and better GRF distribution in the PBM group.
