Prevalence of prediabetes in patients with idiopathic frozen shoulder: a prospective study.
Article in JSES international, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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: The association between diabetes and frozen shoulder is well established. However, the data regarding prediabetes and primary frozen shoulder (PFS) are still lacking. Methods: In a prospective study, 158 patients with PFS were included. The prediabetes status was ascertained by estimating serum hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels in patients with PFS. According to the level of HbA1c, patients were classified into normoglycemic, prediabetic, and diabetic. In addition, random blood sugar (RBS) was also performed. Results: Out of 158 participants, 84 (53.2%) were male and 74 (46.8%) were female. Nine patients had bilateral shoulder involvement, and all were diabetics; 47.5% (n = 75) of the patients were in the age group of 51-60 years, 16.5% (n = 26) of the participants were normoglycemic, 37.3% (n = 59) were prediabetics, and 46.2% (n = 73) were diabetics. The difference in mean HbA1c values between the 3 groups was statistically significant ( Conclusion: The prevalence of prediabetes is 37.5% in patients with PFS. Single-point HbA1c estimation is an acceptable tool to detect prediabetes, whereas RBS estimation should not be used to detect prediabetes.
