Review of diabetic frozen shoulder.
Review in European journal of orthopaedic surgery & traumatology : orthopedie traumatologie, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07097571 (Comparison of the Efficacy of Proximal and Distal Suprascapular Nerve Blocks Under Ultrasound Guidance in the Treatment of Patients Diagnosed With Adhesive Capsulitis), which is not on this map. Cited by 34 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
Frozen shoulder is a painful debilitating condition which can be diagnosed clinically. It is a condition of chronic inflammation and proliferative fibrosis resulting in painful limitation of shoulder movements with classical clinical signs. Diabetic patients are more likely to develop the disease and more likely to require operative management. Diabetic frozen shoulder is a difficult condition to manage, and the clinician must strike a balance between improving range of movement and treating pain, but not over-treating what is an essentially self-resolving condition. Treatment options principally include physiotherapy and intra-articular injections, and progression to hydrodilatation, manipulation under anaesthetic, or arthroscopic capsular release as required. In this article, we review the available literature to assess best management, and correlate with practice at our unit, proposing a management strategy for treating patients with diabetic frozen shoulder. Management decisions should be agreed upon jointly with the patient and be based upon comorbidities, severity and the natural history of the condition.
