Review in Clinical rheumatology, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Opinions vary on whether joint hypermobility is an asset or liability in dance. This paper argues that it is an asset, the arguments for its being a liability often confounded by inadequate scoring systems inappropriately applied. The ambiguity and distress this presents to dancers, the several different causes of joint hypermobility and the separate needs of the many different diverse styles of dance are all discussed. A strategy for the future care and training of hypermobile dancers is proposed.
