In vivo characterization of Achilles subtendon function and morphology within the tendon cross section and along the free tendon.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 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
The Achilles tendon is composed of three distinct fascicle bundles, or "subtendons," each originating from the head of one of the three triceps surae muscles. In a healthy tendon, these subtendons slide relative to each other during muscle contractions. This subtendon sliding is reduced in older adults and younger adults who suffer an Achilles tendon injury. However, subtendon sliding is challenging to quantify in low-load scenarios that are critical for monitoring subtendon biomechanics in patients with mechanically compromised tendons, like following an Achilles tendon rupture and repair surgery. The purpose of this study was to develop a reliable method to characterize subtendon behavior
