Rotating-pulling-poking manipulation in gait analysis for lateral ankle sprain treatment.
Trial report in Journal of traditional Chinese medicine = Chung i tsa chih ying wen pan, 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
objectiveTo compare the changes in gait parameters before and after the treatment of lateral ankle sprain using the rotating-pulling-poking manipulation, and explore the potential bio-mechanical mechanism of this manipulation.
methodsForty patients with lateral ankle sprains were randomly divided into two groups in a 1:1 ratio using a random number table. The experimental group were treated by rotating-pulling-poking manipulation and elastic bandage external fixation, while the control group were treated by ice compress and elastic bandage external fixation. The treatment courses of the two groups were both 2 weeks. We used a three-dimensional motion capture system for kinematic measurements and a Bertec gait analysis force measurement system for mechanical measurements, and compared the changes in gait parameters between the two groups of patients before and after treatment.
resultsIntragroup comparison showed that the support time, swing time, peak of back extension, peak of plantar flexion, peak of toe pedal force, and peak of heel landing force of the affected feet in the experimental group were significantly improved compared to those before treatment (
conclusionsThe rotating-pulling-poking manipulation can effectively improve the patient's gait and range of motion of the affected ankle joint, and enhance the negative gravity in the vertical direction of the affected foot, and the braking and driving forces in the front and back directions. This may be the potential biomechanical mechanism of the rotating-pulling-poking manipulation for treating lateral ankle sprain.
