Short-term intervention effect analysis of neuromuscular joint facilitation in patients who experienced stroke with shoulder subluxation: a clinical randomized controlled trial.
Article in Journal of physical therapy science, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
[Purpose] Shoulder subluxation is a common complication of acute stroke that affects clinical rehabilitation training and hinders the recovery of upper limb motor function. This study explored the short-term interventional effects of neuromuscular joint facilitation in patients who experienced stroke with shoulder subluxation. [Participants and Methods] We recruited 36 patients who experienced stroke with shoulder subluxation. All patients were randomly divided into two groups: the neuromuscular joint facilitation group (n=18) and the control group (n=18). The control group underwent routine rehabilitation treatment. The intervention in the neuromuscular joint facilitation group involved neuromuscular joint facilitation of the shoulder joint in four modes based on conventional rehabilitation treatment. Four different interventions were administered. The thickness of the supraspinatus muscle and the acromion-greater tuberosity distance were measured using ultrasound to observe the curative effect. [Results] In neuromuscular joint facilitation group, the thickness of supraspinatus muscle, acromion-greater tuberosity distance and acromion-greater tuberosity distance difference were significantly different before and after intervention. In the control group, there were no significant difference before and after intervention. [Conclusion] Neuromuscular joint facilitation intervention improved the thickness of the supraspinatus muscle, shortened the distance between the acromion and the greater tubercle, and improved shoulder subluxation in patients who experienced stroke.
