A Case Report: Can Prioritizing Sensory Integration Therapy Help Improve Gross Motor Function in a Rare Case of Neurogenic Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita?
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Arthrogryposis multiplex congenital (AMC) is a congenital disorder diagnosed with extremity contractures, restricted joint range of motion, foot abnormalities, and hip dislocation. The current literature emphasizes medical and surgical management, but very few studies provide insight into physiotherapy management for AMC. We reported the case of a 16-month-old male diagnosed with AMC, operated on both hips for teratologic dislocation. Physiotherapy examination was conducted, and treatment was planned based on the principles of Sensory Integration Therapy (SIT) and neurodevelopmental technique (NDT) with orthosis to assist in functional recovery. He achieved motor milestones within one year of regular physiotherapy treatment. As per our literature search, this is the first study where an attempt has been made to utilize sensory integration along with NDT for the treatment of AMC, although the clinical presentation of the patient shows more musculoskeletal abnormalities.
