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

This study aimed to determine the effects of kinesiotape (KT) on pain, range of motion, and functional status in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee. In this randomized controlled trial, patients with knee osteoarthritis, based on American College of Rheumatology criteria, and Kellgren-Lawrence grade 2 or 3 criteria were selected. Visual analogue scale and active range of motion were the primary outcome measures. Timed Up and Go test and 6-min walk test, were the secondary outcome measures. Evaluation was performed at baseline (T0), after 1 hr (T1), and after 72 hr (T2). We recruited 27 patients with osteoarthritis (age, 57.33±8.72 years; 63% female; body mass index, 29.7±4.3 kg/m
