The Correlation Between Ankle Somatosensory Acuity and Sensory Organisation in Postural Stability.

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 sensory organisation test (SOT) and active movement extent discrimination assessment (AMEDA) are commonly used tools to assess postural stability and somatosensory acuity. Research on the relationship between these assessments is limited. This study aimed to explore the relationship between ankle somatosensation and postural stability in healthy adults. Participants completed one assessment of ankle somatosensory acuity (AMEDA) and one assessment of postural stability (SOT). Ankle somatosensory acuity was assessed on the non-dominant foot and measured their ability to detected small changes in joint movement within the inversion/eversion plane. The SOT involved both feet upon the testing platform and six "conditions" which distorted the sensory systems and assessed the ability to use visual, somatosensory, and vestibular feedback to maintain postural control. A Spearman's Rank-Order Correlation was run to assess the relationship between AMEDA and SOT measures. We hypothesised that AMEDA scores would positively correlate with SOT conditions 4-6 (sway-referenced platform for all) and the somatosensory (SOM) sensory score. 54 participants (28 females, 26 males; mean age 40 ± 14 years) completed the study. Positive correlations were found between the AMEDA score and SOT conditions 5 (eyes closed, sway-reference platform) and 6 scores (sway-referenced visual surround and platform) (
