Biomechanical Changes During Running on a Lower Body Positive Pressure Treadmill in Competitive Runners.
Trial report in Scandinavian journal of medicine & science in sports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Lower body positive pressure treadmills (LBPPTs) offer precise body weight unloading for injury rehabilitation and performance training in runners. This study investigated biomechanical changes during running at varying body weight support (BWS) levels (0%-80%) in competitive runners, including sex-specific responses. Twenty-six runners (age: 33.6 ± 9.8 years; 15 female, 11 male) completed randomized 3-min running bouts at 12 km/h across nine BWS levels. Spatiotemporal parameters, plantar force, peak tibial acceleration, and running stability were measured using pressure insoles and inertial sensors placed at the tibia and foot. Our results revealed significant reductions in step rate (b = -0.24 steps•min
