Effects of Schroth 3D Exercise on Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
Review in Children (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07201103 (The Effects of Augmented Reality-Based Exercise Training on Body Awareness, Trunk Appearance Perception, and Exercise Adherence in Adolescents With Idiopathic Scoliosis), which is not on this map. Cited by 14 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
(1) Background: This meta-analysis aims to systematically assess the effect size of Schroth three-dimensional exercise training on adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, especially for Cobb angles, angles of trunk rotation, and quality of life. (2) Methods: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) focused on the effect of Schroth exercise on patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) were retrieved from six databases, including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, and Wanfang. All publications until July 2023 were searched. Two researchers screened and evaluated the literature. Review manager (RevMan 5.3) statistical software was used for meta-analyses, and subgroup analysis and sensitivity analysis of the literature with high heterogeneity were further conducted. (3) Results: In total, 14 studies were included, including 538 adolescent idiopathic scoliosis patients. Compared with conventional physical therapy, Schroth 3D exercise training is more effective at reducing the Cobb angle (WMD = -3.32, 95%CI [-4.15, -2.50],
