Expert guidance for the rehabilitation of children with arthrogryposis: protocol using an integrated knowledge translation approach.
Article in Research involvement and engagement, 2022. 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
backgroundArthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is a group of rare congenital disorders characterized by multiple joint contractures present at birth. Contractures can affect different body areas and impact activities of daily living, mobility and participation. Although early rehabilitation is crucial to promote autonomy and participation in children with AMC, empirical evidence to inform best practice is scarce and clinical expertise hard to develop due to the rarity of AMC. Preliminary research involving stakeholders in AMC (youth with AMC, parents, and clinicians) identified priorities in pediatric rehabilitation. Scoping reviews on these priorities showed a lack of high quality evidence related to rehabilitation in AMC. The objective of this project is to provide rehabilitation expert guidance on the assessment and treatment of children with AMC in the areas of muscle and joint function, pain, mobility and self-care, participation and psychosocial wellbeing.
methodsAn integrated knowledge translation approach will be used throughout the project. Current rehabilitation practices in AMC will be identified using a clinician survey. Using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluations framework (GRADE) approach, a panel of interdisciplinary expert clinicians, patient and family representatives, and researchers will develop expert guidance on the assessment and treatment for pediatric AMC rehabilitation based on findings from the scoping reviews and survey results. Consensus on the guidance statements will be sought using a modified Delphi process with a wider panel of international AMC experts, and statements appraised using the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation II (AGREE II) tool. Theoretical facilitators and barriers toward implementing clinical guidance into practice will be identified among rehabilitation clinicians and managers to inform the design of dissemination and implementation strategies. DISCUSSION: This multi-phase project will provide healthcare users and providers with research-based, expert guidance for the rehabilitation of children with AMC and will contribute to family-centered practice.
