Cervical Proprioception Assessed through Targeted Head Repositioning: Validation of a Clinical Test Based on Optoelectronic Measures.

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
Neck proprioception is commonly assessed with head repositioning tests. In such a test, an operator rotates the head of a blindfolded individual to a target position. After returning to the rest position, the participant actively repositions the head to the target. Joint Position Error (JPE) is the angular difference between the target angle (however oriented in a 3D space) and the actively reached positions (the smaller the difference, the better the proprioception). This study aimed to validate a head-to-target (HTT) repositioning test using an optoelectronic system for also measuring the components of the JPE in the horizontal, frontal, and sagittal planes. The head movements requested by the operator consisted of 30° left-right rotations and 25° flexion-extension. The operators or subjects could not obtain these movements without modest rotations in other planes. Two operators were involved. Twenty-six healthy participants (13 women) were recruited (mean (SD): 33.4 (6.3) years). The subjects' JPE in the requested (intended) plane of motion (JPE
