Dynamic postural stability indices in athletes: a case-control study on chronic ankle instability during multi-directional landing assessments.
Article in BMC musculoskeletal disorders, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07516197 (From Global Balance Metrics to Plane-Specific Signatures), which is not on this map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.

Abstract
backgroundOur understanding of the impact of chronic ankle instability (CAI) on dynamic postural stability remains limited, primarily due to the absence of reliable and accurate assessment tools. This study aimed to explore two aspects of dynamic postural stability: (1) differences in the dynamic postural stability index (DPSI) and its directional components between athletes with CAI and those with stable ankles; and (2) the impact of jump direction (forward vs. lateral) on these indices across both groups.
methodsWe recruited fifteen athletes with CAI and fifteen healthy athletes as controls. The injured side of CAI subjects and the matched side of controls performed forward and lateral single-leg landing tasks (from a 20 cm height onto a force platform, three repetitions). DPSI and its directional indices (anterior-posterior, medial-lateral, and vertical) were calculated according to Wikstrom's method.
resultsAthletes with CAI demonstrated significantly greater anterior-posterior stability index (APSI) scores (F
conclusionsAthletes with CAI demonstrated dynamic stability deficits, and the direction of the jump can affect dynamic postural stability in the sagittal and frontal planes.
