Effects oF compression legwear on knee biomechanics and inter-joint coordination during depth jumps: a randomized cross-over study.
Trial report in Scientific reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
This study aimed to investigate the impact of different types of compression legwear on knee biomechanics, and lower limb inter-joint coordination during depth jumps. Twelve healthy male participants were randomly assigned to wear compression shorts (CS), compression tights (CT), and sports shorts (control: CC). The participants perform depth jumps from a platform of 40 cm in height, thus landing on their dominant side (DS) and non-dominant side (NS). The lower limbs kinematics and kinetics are simultaneously recorded by using a motion capture system and force plates. During initial contact phase, the CT group shows larger peak knee flexion angles (PI = 0.033) and sagittal knee range of motion (ROM) (PIII = 0.010) but smaller horizontal ROM of the knee (PIII = 0.016) than the CC group. During stabilization phase, the CS group exhibits significantly higher peak knee flexion (PII = 0.025) and sagittal knee ROM (PII = 0.001). While the peak vertical ground reaction force (vGRF) is not obtained by the type of legwear (P > 0.05), significant phase- and direction-specific differences emerge in the knee moments, with the CS group showing larger extension moments in landings on the DS (PI < 0.001, PII = 0.005) but smaller abduction moments than the CC/CT in landings on the NS (PII = 0.004). An inter-joint coordination analysis indicates that the CT group has the highest knee-ankle (P < 0.001) and knee-hip coordination (P < 0.001) during landing on the NS, whereas the CC group shows excellent knee-hip coordination on the DS (P < 0.001). Compression legwear exerts pressure on the lower limbs during various phases of jumping, thereby altering the biomechanical characteristics of the knee joint and the synergistic mechanisms of the lower limbs. CT improve knee-ankle coordination and mediolateral stability, while CS enhance sagittal-plane control during bilateral landings.
