Improving postural stability through proprioceptive training in dogs.
Article in Frontiers in veterinary science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Postural stability (PS) is essential for functional mobility and rehabilitation. While posturography and center of pressure (COP) parameters are commonly used to assess PS, little is known about the effects of proprioceptive training programs in dogs. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a 4-week training program in dogs on a motorized proprioceptive training platform which creates a curved movement in the 3 planes of space that follows Elispheric® trajectories (Imoove-vet®, Allcare Innovations, France). Twenty dogs were divided into a training group and a control group. Five conventional COP parameters were measured under 4 different conditions (neutral, uphill, downhill, perturbed standing) pre- and post-intervention. The primary outcomes included statistically significant improvements in craniocaudal (CCD%), mediolateral (MLD%) displacement, and support surface (SS%). Dogs participating in the training group showed statistically significant reductions in COP excursions post-intervention, specifically CCD% during perturbed standing, MLD% during downhill standing, and SS% during uphill standing. Compared to the control group, the training group showed a statistically significant reduction in CCD% and SS% during uphill standing, and MLD% during downhill standing post-intervention. No statistically significant changes were observed, and effect sizes remained below Cohen's
