Postural correction training improves chronic pain, nerve function, and inflammation in knee osteoarthritis: A retrospective cohort study.
Article in World journal of orthopedics, 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
backgroundKnee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a prevalent degenerative joint disorder characterized by complex neuroinflammatory mechanisms involving peripheral-central nervous system crosstalk. Current research gaps exist regarding the modulatory effects of biomechanical interventions such as postural correction training (PCT) on these pathways, particularly its impact on neurogenic inflammation and associated nerve dysfunction.
aimTo examine the effect of PCT on chronic pain related to KOA, nerve function, and inflammatory factors and further assess the influencing factors.
methodsThis study included 100 patients with chronic pain related to KOA admitted to our hospital from March 2022 to March 2024 who were selected as research subjects, and divided into a control group (conventional treatment,
resultsThe clinical effectiveness rate of 90.00% in the observation group was higher than that of 72.00% in the control group (
conclusionPCT can improve the treatment effect on chronic pain related to KOA, nerve function and inflammatory response. Joint effusion, joint stiffness, and KOA are factors for y ineffective treatment. Joint effusion, higher K-L stage, and larger flexion contracture were risk factors, while PCT was a protective factor for ineffective treatment.
