Un-resolving frozen shoulder: Are we really treating it?
Article in Pakistan journal of medical sciences. 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
Objective: To perform ultrasound examination in un-resolving frozen shoulder disorder, in Pakistani cohort visiting rheumatology clinic. Methods: This cross sectional study was carried out at Department of Rheumatology, Indus Medical College Tando Mohhamad Khan, from 16 Results: In 138 cases on ultrasound examination following injuries were noted: rotator cuff tendinopathy (RCT) (61%), adhesive capsulitis (21%), mixed lesion (rotator cuff tendinopathy and adhesive capsulitis) (14%).In age group < 50 years rotator cuff tendinopathy was the major lesion, while in cases >50 years age group: adhesive capsulitis (AC) was predominant lesion (p-0.05).Rotator cuff tendinopathy had significant association with supraspinatus tears (p<0.5). Conclusion: In Un-resolving frozen shoulder pain, ultrasound examination of involved joint helps in reaching the exact cause which may differ from the existing diagnosis and guides to further management.
