Relationship between pain and range of motion in frozen shoulder.
Article in JSES international, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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: A frozen shoulder (FS) is characterized by pain and limited range of motion (ROM). Although physical assessment of ROM is important for diagnosing and staging FS, ROM cannot be accurately assessed in clinical practice because of pain and muscle contraction. This study aimed to measure changes in shoulder joint ROM before and after anesthesia (ΔROM) in patients with FS and investigate the factors affecting these changes. Methods: This study included 54 patients (age, 55.6 ± 9.4 years; 17 males; disease duration, 6.6 ± 3.4 months) with FS before manipulation under transmission anesthesia. FS was defined as having a ROM in external rotation (ER) that was less than 50% of that in the unaffected shoulder. Pain at night and during motion was assessed using a numerical rating scale. Before anesthesia, the passive ROM of forward flexion (FF), abduction (AD), and ER were measured in the supine position. After confirming that the anesthesia was effective, passive ROM was measured again. Results: The ROM in the FF, AD, and ER after anesthesia was significantly higher than that before anesthesia ( Conclusion: The ROM of the FS is susceptible to pain and muscle contraction. Interventions, such as physical therapy, may be recommended after pain relief.
