The Effectiveness of Ultrasound-Guided Subacromial-Subdeltoid Bursa Combined With Long Head of the Biceps Tendon Sheath Corticosteroid Injection for Hemiplegic Shoulder Pain: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
Article in Frontiers in neurology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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: Subacromial-subdeltoid (SASD) bursa and long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) sheath corticosteroid injection are commonly used to treat shoulder pain associated with arthritic shoulder conditions, but effectiveness in the stroke population is unclear. This study aimed to investigate the clinical effectiveness of ultrasound-guided SASD bursa combined with LHBT sheath corticosteroid injection for hemiplegic shoulder pain (HSP) compared with SASD bursa injection alone. Methods: 60 patients with HSP were randomly allocated to the dual-target group ( Results: A total of 141 patients with HSP were screened, and 60 patients were included. Significant differences in the VAS, PROM, UEFMA and MBI were observed at all follow-ups in both groups. The dual-target group showed a significant difference in VAS score compared with the single-target group (3.3 vs. 3.7, Conclusion: The combination of SASD bursa and LHBT sheath corticosteroid injection is superior to SASD bursa injection alone in reducing shoulder pain and improving functional activities in patients with HSP.
