Frozen shoulder: overview of clinical presentation and review of the current evidence base for management strategies.
Review in Future science OA, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 2 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 22 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.

Abstract
Adhesive capsulitis of the shoulder (ACS) is a condition with significant clinical and economic implications. The etiology of adhesive capsulitis is not clearly understood and there remains lack of consensus in clinical management for this condition. It can occur as a primary idiopathic condition or secondary to medical conditions or trauma. The hallmarks of ACS are pain and stiffness, caused by formation of adhesive or scar tissue in the glenohumeral joint. Management strategies vary depending on stage of presentation, patient factors and clinician preferences, and can range from conservative options to surgical intervention. The aim of this review is to summarize the pathophysiology and clinical presentation of ACS and to discuss the evidence base for various management strategies employed today.
