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.

Abstract

backgroundUltrasound is an essential tool for diagnosing shoulder disorders. However, the role of ultrasound in assessing and diagnosing adhesive capsulitis has not been fully studied. PURPOSE: To evaluate the ultrasound features of adhesive capsulitis and estimate the correlations between clinical impairment and ultrasound parameters. STUDY

designCase series; Level of evidence, 4.

methodsA total of 61 patients with clinically diagnosed unilateral adhesive capsulitis were retrospectively reviewed using high-resolution ultrasound. To compare ultrasound parameters, we performed ultrasound examinations on both affected and unaffected shoulders. Ultrasound parameters, including thickness of the coracohumeral ligament (CHL), rotator interval (RI), axillary recess (AR), hypervascularity of the RI, and effusion of the long head of the biceps tendon sheath, were measured. Passive range of motion (PROM), visual analog scale for pain, and the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index were used for clinical assessment.

resultsThe CHL, the RI, and the AR in affected shoulders were significantly thicker than in unaffected shoulders (

conclusionThe ultrasound parameters associated with structural changes were correlated with clinical characteristics of adhesive capsulitis. Thickened CHL, RI, and AR were observed in affected shoulders. The cutoff values of 2.2 mm for CHL thickness and 4 mm for AR thickness can be used as cutoff diagnostic values for adhesive capsulitis.
