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

This study aimed to verify the comparative effectiveness of shock wave therapy versus therapeutic exercise, including the possibility of combining both therapies, in patients who did not respond to the first treatment. A prospective randomized clinical trial was carried out, predicting the possibility of a cross-over between the two treatment options, with patients who did not respond to either treatment. Treatments were, respectively, eccentric therapeutic exercise consisting of 30 min sessions of stretching and strengthening exercises, 5 days a week for 4 weeks (Groups A and D) and Extracorporeal Shock Waves Therapy (ESWT) according to a protocol of three sessions, one per week, each of 2000 pulses at a 4 Hz frequency and administering an energy flux density (EFD) varying between 0.03 mJ/mm
