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.

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.

Abstract

objectiveto evaluate the effect of physical therapy on the range of motion of the shoulders and perimetry of the upper limbs in women treated with radiotherapy for breast cancer.

methodsa total of 35 participants were randomized into two groups, with 18 in the control group (CG) and 17 in the study group (SG). Both of the groups underwent three evaluations to assess the range of motion of the shoulders and perimetry of the upper limbs, and the study group underwent supervised physical therapy for the upper limbs.

resultsthe CG had deficits in external rotation in evaluations 1, 2, and 3, whereas the SG had deficits in flexion, abduction, and external rotation in evaluation 1. The deficit in abduction was recovered in evaluation 2, whereas the deficits in all movements were recovered in evaluation 3. No significant differences in perimetry were observed between the groups.

conclusionthe applied supervised physical therapy was effective in recovering the deficit in abduction after radiotherapy, and the deficits in flexion and external rotation were recovered within two months after the end of radiotherapy. Registration number of the clinical trial: NCT02198118. OBJETIVO: avaliar o efeito da fisioterapia na amplitude de movimento do ombro e na perimetria do membro superior, aplicada durante o período da radioterapia nas mulheres em tratamento para o câncer de mama. MÉTODOS: 35 voluntárias foram randomizadas em dois grupos, 18 para o grupo controle e 17 para o grupo de estudo. Os dois grupos foram submetidos a três avaliações da amplitude de movimento do ombro e perimetria do membro superior, sendo o grupo de estudo também submetido à fisioterapia supervisionada para os membros superiores. RESULTADOS: o grupo controle apresentou déficit entre os membros para o movimento de rotação externa nas avaliações 1, 2 e 3. O grupo de estudo apresentou déficit entre os membros para os movimentos de flexão, abdução e rotação externa na avaliação 1. Houve recuperação do déficit de movimento de abdução na avaliação 2 e, na avaliação 3, os déficits de todos os movimentos estavam recuperados. Na análise da perimetria não foi observada diferença significativa. CONCLUSÃO: o protocolo fisioterapêutico supervisionado aplicado foi efetivo na recuperação do déficit de abdução pós-radioterapia e de flexão e rotação externa quando avaliados até 2 meses após o término da radioterapia. Número do registro do ensaio clínico: NCT02198118. OBJETIVO: evaluar el efecto de la terapia física en el rango de movimiento de los hombros y la perimetría de las extremidades superiores en mujeres tratadas con radioterapia debido a cáncer de mama. MÉTODOS: un total de 35 participantes fueron aleatorizadas en dos grupos, 18 en el grupo control y 17 en el grupo de estudio. Ambos grupos fueron sometidos a tres evaluaciones para evaluar el rango de movimiento de los hombros y la perimetría de las extremidades superiores, y el grupo de estudio fue sometido a terapia física supervisada de las extremidades superiores. RESULTADOS: el grupo de control tuvo déficits en la rotación externa en la evaluación 1, 2, y 3, mientras que el grupo de estudio tuvo déficits en la flexión, abducción y rotación externa en la evaluación 1. El déficit en la abducción fue recuperado en la evaluación 2, mientras que los déficits en todos los movimientos fueron recuperados en la evaluación 3. No se observaron diferencias significativas en la perimetría. CONCLUSIÓN: la terapia física supervisada aplicada fue efectiva en la recuperación del déficit en la abducción después de la radioterapia y los déficits en flexión y rotación externa fueron recuperados dos meses después de terminada la radioterapia. Número de registro del ensayo clínico: NCT02198118.
