Assessment of proprioceptive decline in chronic ankle instability: a comparative evaluation of sub-modalities.

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: Recurrent ankle sprains in chronic ankle instability (CAI) individuals are strongly linked to impaired proprioception, but the specific mechanisms underlying these impairments remain incompletely understood. This is largely due to the complexity of the proprioceptive system, which comprises multiple sub-modalities such as kinesthesia, joint position sense, force sense, vibration sense and landing proprioception, with the characteristic deficits of these sub-modalities and their diagnostic sensitivity and specificity remaining unclear. This study aims to comprehensively assess proprioception in CAI individuals by pointing sub-modality deficits, and to identify the core sub-modality with the greatest clinical discriminative value for CAI. Methods: Fifty-eight participants were recruited, including 29 with CAI and 29 healthy controls. They underwent a battery of proprioceptive assessments: kinesthesia via the Threshold to Detect Passive Movement (TTDPM) test, joint position sense through the Joint Position Reproduction (JPR) test, force sense with the Force Match (FM) test, vibration sense using the Vibration Detection Threshold test, and landing proprioception evaluated by the Ankle Inversion Discrimination Apparatus for Landing (AIDAL) test. Between-group differences were analyzed using independent samples Result: Higher passive perception thresholds in TTDPM tests (dorsiflexion: Conclusion: Proprioceptive deficits in CAI are modality-specific, primarily affecting kinesthesia, force sense, and landing proprioception. Among the impaired sub-modalities, landing proprioception has the strongest predictive value for CAI and can serve as a key target for clinical assessment and rehabilitation intervention.
