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
Background: Conventional orthotic insoles demonstrate limited accommodation for individual foot morphology and plantar pressure distribution patterns, resulting in biomechanical inefficiencies and patient discomfort. Computational approaches integrating artificial intelligence with additive manufacturing technologies offer promising solutions for personalized orthotic design. This study investigates the clinical efficacy of AI-driven 3D-printed meshed-silicone orthotics through comprehensive biomechanical assessment. Methods: A prospective cohort study (n = 21; 8 females, 13 males; age 25.6 ± 3.68 years; BMI 25.48 ± 3.46) evaluated custom orthotics fabricated using machine learning algorithms applied to individual foot and gait data. Pre- and post-intervention assessments included Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Foot Function Index (FFI), Foot Posture Index (FPI), plantar pressure distribution analysis, and 3-dimensional gait analysis over a 4-week period. Results: FFI scores showed minimal variation (pre-intervention: 13.48 ± 13.14; post-intervention: 14.10 ± 12.96). Significant biomechanical modifications were observed: multi-planar lower extremity alignment correction at hip, knee, and ankle joints. Plantar pressure redistribution demonstrated decreased heel loading with unchanged forefoot pressure distribution, accompanied by significant maximum metatarsal pressure elevation ( Conclusions: II. AI-integrated 3D-printed meshed-silicone orthotics demonstrated measurable biomechanical improvements including lower extremity alignment optimization and plantar pressure redistribution. These computational design methodologies combined with advanced manufacturing technologies establish a foundation for personalized orthotic interventions in clinical biomechanics applications.
