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
Purpose: This study aims to elucidate the alterations in gait patterns following knee injuries by comparing the gait analysis of the affected and unaffected sides in patients with meniscus lesions. The findings may provide a valuable reference for the early detection of meniscus injuries. Methods: The study involved 37 patients diagnosed with meniscus lesions at the Sports Medicine Center of our hospital between December 2023 and November 2024. These patients were confirmed to have meniscus lesions through MRI and arthroscopic surgery. We employed the Dynamic Gait & Posture Analysis System (Shenzhen Xingzheng Technology Co., Ltd.) to analyze three-dimensional gait characteristics, comparing the differences in 3D gait between the affected and unaffected sides. Results: A total of 37 patients were included in the study, with an average age of 39.24 ± 14.06 years, comprising 18 males and 19 females. Among these patients, 18 had right-sided involvement and 19 had left-sided involvement, with an average disease duration of 20.54 ± 28.59 months. The results of gait phase analysis indicated that the affected side exhibited a shorter duration during the propulsion phase compared to the unaffected side ( Conclusion: Among patients with meniscal lesions, the affected limb showed reduced propulsion-phase proportion, impact velocity, MDVBW, and maximum swing velocity. These side-to-side differences likely reflect sagittal-plane pain-avoidance adaptations.
