A protocol for obtaining upper and lower extremity joints' range of motion in children using three-dimensional motion analysis system.
Article in Frontiers in physiology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Three-dimensional (3D) motion analysis (MA) techniques are progressively being used in biomechanics research and for clinical applications to assess the risk of injuries. A marker-based 3D MA protocol has been developed to measure the upper and lower extremity (UE and LE) joints' active and passive ranges of motion (AROM and PROM) in children. The joints that were included in this protocol are shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee and ankle. The anatomical joint coordinate systems (JCS) have been defined for the upper and lower extremities to standardize reporting. A marker placement model was defined according to the International Society of Biomechanics (ISB) recommendations and used to develop the protocol. The proposed movements will be captured and analyzed using the Motion Analysis Corporations 3D MA system integrated with Cortex software. The movements adopted in this study have been selected from various sources to incorporate all joint rotations while ensuring the isolation of each joint motion during the movements. It is recommended that future studies utilize this protocol to draw a relationship between the joints' range of motion (ROM) and the adjacent segments characteristics, i.e., segment length, joint stiffness, etc.
