Effectiveness of Early Physical Therapy Rehabilitation in Patient With Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
A diverse group of idiopathic inflammatory arthritis that affects children under the age of 16 and lasts six weeks or longer is known as juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) or juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA). It causes joint pain and morning stiffness, and the affected joints swell and become difficult to move. During flares, patients may experience flu-like symptoms such as muscle aches and fatigue. Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) are the mainstay of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) treatment. If necessary, immunosuppressive medications can be administered in stages. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are pain relievers for joints. Physical therapy treatment aims to reduce pain, improve joint range, correct movement patterns, strengthen weak structures, improve cardiovascular endurance, and improve patients' quality of life. We present a case of a 12-year-old boy who presented to the hospital with knee pain and an inability to walk without assistance after falling on the ground one month prior. Medical history revealed that the patient had juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, which was confirmed on investigations. The consultant physician referred the patient for pre-rehabilitation physiotherapy before corrective surgery.
