A Novel Rehabilitation Program Using Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) and Taping for Shoulder Pain in Swimmers: A Protocol and Case Example.
Article in International journal of sports physical therapy, 2021. 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
In-pool return to swim protocols have been described for swimmers returning from being deactivated from swimming due to a shoulder injury who have full shoulder strength. Many swimmers actively participate in swim practice and competition with shoulder pain and experience deficits in performance. There are multiple reported risk factors associated with shoulder pain among swimmers, including training errors and physical impairments. These include pool and dry-land training errors, weakness in the scapular stabilizers and rotator cuff, and muscle tightness. A need exists for dry-land rehabilitation programs for impairments common to swimmers that can be performed in a traditional outpatient physical therapy setting. The purpose of this clinical commentary is to present a protocol using neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES), taping, strengthening, and stretching to address impairments that are common among swimmers while allowing continued active participation in practice and competition. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level 5.
