1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Background: Lateral ankle sprain (LAS) is prevalent among runners, with many developing chronic ankle instability (CAI). While CAI is associated with many motor-behavioral, sensory-perceptual, and pathomechanical factors, its impact on gait biomechanics remains unclear. This cross-sectional study aimed to assess gait biomechanics and other factors contributing to CAI in runners. Methods: Seventy participants (47 men and 23 women) were categorized as healthy ( Results: Runners with CAI and acute LAS reported significantly greater perceived instability ( Conclusion: These results highlight the importance of considering self-reported function and perceived instability when assessing LAS and CAI. The absence of gross running gait alterations suggests that rehabilitation could safely integrate running early in recovery. However, more demanding tasks or advanced biomechanical modeling techniques may be needed to identify residual gait impairments.
