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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeFascial changes in hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS), a heritable connective tissue disorder, can be used visualized with sonoelastography. The purpose of this study was to explore the inter-fascial gliding characteristics in hEDS.

methodsIn 9 subjects, the right iliotibial tract was examined with ultrasonography. Tissue displacements of the iliotibial tract were estimated from ultrasound data using cross-correlation techniques.

resultsIn hEDS subjects, shear strain was 46.2%, lower than those with lower limb pain without hEDS (89.5%) and in control subjects without hEDS and without pain (121.1%).

conclusionExtracellular matrix changes in hEDS may manifest as reduced inter-fascial plane gliding.
