The association between crawling as a first mode of mobilisation and the presentation of atraumatic shoulder instability: a retrospective cohort study.
Article in Shoulder & elbow, 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
background and purposeTo investigate if there is an association between whether an infant crawls as their first mode of mobilisation and the subsequent presentation of atraumatic shoulder instability. PATIENTS AND
methodsA retrospective cohort of 50 consecutive patients who had presented to a national specialist centre for shoulder instability with a diagnosis of atraumatic instability was compared with a cohort of 50 participants who did not have shoulder instability. Primary outcomes were presence of atraumatic shoulder instability and whether or not the patient crawled as their first mode of mobility. A Pearson chi-squared test was used to evaluate associations.
resultsThere was a significant association between crawling and shoulder instability (
interpretationThere may be an association between developmental milestones and atraumatic shoulder instability. It cannot be concluded from this study whether association is causal and additional research is needed to further investigate this relationship. Asking patients presenting with shoulder instability about their developmental milestones as part of a full subjective history could guide a more targeted sensorimotor rehabilitation programme.
