Effects of isokinetic exercises on balance, proprioception, quality of life, and kinesiophobia in multiple sclerosis.
Article in Neurodegenerative disease management, 2026. 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
aimTo evaluate the effects of isokinetic hamstring and quadriceps muscle (IHGM)-strengthening and home exercises on balance, proprioception, fear of falling (FoF), kinesiophobia, and quality of life in persons with multiple sclerosis (PwMS).
methodsThe peak torque/body mass of the IHGMs, the absolute angular error (AAE) and mean AAE of the less and more affected legs, and the scores of the Dynamic Gait Index, 10-meter walk test, Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Modified Falls Efficacy Scale, Multiple Sclerosis Quality of Life-54 (MSQoL-54), Visual Analog Scale, and Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia-17 (TSK-17) were evaluated before and after the training programs.
resultsIsokinetic exercises resulted in significantly higher improvements in the BBS (
conclusionsIsokinetic exercises can improve muscle strength, QoL, and balance in PwMS without complications or exacerbations.
