Clinical predictors of post-concussion kinesiophobia severity among adolescents.
Article in Brain injury, 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
backgroundKinesiophobia is a common post-concussion comorbidity. Identifying factors associated with post-concussion kinesiophobia may be clinically useful to guide effective treatment plans. PURPOSE: To identify patient-level factors associated with kinesiophobia among adolescents after concussion.
methodsSixty-six participants (age = 15.3, SD = 1.8 years; 59% female) were evaluated at two visits: Visit 1 (mean = 9.9, SD = 4.3 days post-concussion) and Visit 2 (mean = 43.9, SD = 15.9 days post-concussion). They completed the Post-Concussion Symptom Inventory (PCSI) and Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK-17) questionnaires. In addition, we collected age, sex, concussion history, and musculoskeletal injury history variables to include as covariates.
resultsAt Visit 1, higher PCSI ratings were significantly associated with higher TSK ratings (β = 0.07, 95% CI = 0.02, 0.13,
conclusionsWe observed an association between post-concussion kinesiophobia with symptom severity initially post-injury and previous musculoskeletal injury at later stages of recovery. Clinicians may consider the time since injury, overlap with concussion symptoms, and past injury history to help contextualize pathways to reduce post-concussion kinesiophobia.
