1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Erb's palsy usually commonly arises from incidents such as falls, collisions, birth trauma, and shoulder injuries in children. It impairs upper extremity muscle function, which has an impact on the quality of life and social interaction. Physical therapy is beneficial in preserving and enhancing upper extremity function, improving the quality of life. In this case report, a seven-year-old female child with complaints of weakness in the right upper limb demonstrated a notable increase in the strength and function of the upper extremities after four weeks of structured rehabilitation using virtual reality and functional electrical stimulation.
