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

Center of pressure is a valuable biomechanical variable, predicting joint loading contributions during movement and giving insight into compensatory patterns. The purpose of this study was to assess the validity and reliability of force insoles in calculating vertical ground reaction force and center of pressure during return-to-sport jump testing. Ten healthy individuals performed double- and single-leg vertical and horizontal jumps on an instrumented treadmill while wearing instrumented force insoles. Vertical ground reaction force and anterior-posterior and medial-lateral center of pressure were collected at peak vertical ground reaction force from both devices. Repeat testing occurred 7 ± 5 days following the initial session. Force insoles were valid for measuring vertical ground reaction force (mean absolute error (MAE): 4.34 N/kg) and anterior-posterior center of pressure (MAE: 10% foot length) but were not valid for medial-lateral center of pressure (MAE: 50% foot width). During double-leg vertical, single-leg vertical, double-leg horizontal, and single-leg horizontal jumps, force insoles demonstrated good reliability for measurements of vertical ground reaction force (ICC: 0.89, 0.75, 0.89, and 0.91), anterior-posterior center of pressure (ICC: 0.88, 0.89, 0.94, and 0.97), and medial-lateral center of pressure (ICC: 0.72, 0.09, 0.82, and 0.73). Force insoles are a valid and reliable alternative to evaluating vertical ground reaction force and anterior-posterior center of pressure during return-to-sport jump testing.
