Subscapularis pyomyositis presenting as shoulder stiffness mistaken as frozen shoulder in young female: a case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Pyomyositis of the shoulder region in young healthy patients is rare but can lead to fatal overwhelming sepsis. Here we present the case of an otherwise healthy 32-year-old female patient with pain and stiffness in the right shoulder. Initial treatment with physical therapy and injection was ineffective. Magnetic resonance imaging of the right shoulder suggested subscapularis intramuscular sarcoma but excision of the muscle and biopsy revealed organized subscapularis pyomyositis. This case demonstrates the importance of investigating predisposing conditions in young patients with painful stiffness mimicking frozen shoulder that does not respond to nonoperative treatment.
