Balance Impairments in Adolescents Post-Sports Concussion during Single and Dual Tasks.
Article in Brain and behavior, 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
objectiveThis study aimed to explore changes in sway during single tasks and dual tasks in adolescents with and without sport concussion (SC).
methodsA cross-sectional study of 57 adolescents with an SC and 67 healthy participants was compared on static balance during single- and dual-task conditions on hard and compliant surfaces. Postural sway was assessed using a force platform (with and without a foam pad) during three cognitive conditions.
resultsIndividuals with SC had greater sway compared with healthy participants (p < 0.05). There were no significant interactions of groups and the task conditions. Across both groups, higher sway was observed in the compliant surface condition compared with the hard surface condition (p < 0.001). Greater sway was measured in the single task compared with the dual-task conditions (p < 0.05), and the perceptual inhibition task generated greater sway than the spatial discrimination task (p < 0.05). DISCUSSION: Several factors were associated with increased sway, including compliant surface, dual task, and perceptual inhibition tasks. However, the root-mean-square in the anteroposterior direction was the only measure that showed a difference between the two groups, while only the normalized path length sway measures illustrated the difference between the dual- and single-task conditions.
