Physiotherapy rehabilitation experiences of people with shoulder dislocation in ARTISAN study: a qualitative study.
Trial report in BMJ open, 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
backgroundAcute Rehabilitation following Traumatic anterior shoulder dISlocAtioN (ARTISAN) was a large trial comparing the clinical and cost-effectiveness of two rehabilitation interventions in adults with a first-time traumatic shoulder dislocation. Participants were allocated to receive either a single session of advice (ARTISAN) or a single session of advice and a programme of physiotherapy (ARTISAN plus). Trial results illustrated that additional physiotherapy after an initial session was not superior in improving functional outcomes for participants.
objectivesIn this study, we aim to explore the experiences of a purposive sample of participants from both the ARTISAN and ARTISAN plus groups regarding their rehabilitation journey.
designThis is a semistructured interview-based study.
settingThe study was conducted in the United Kingdom.
participantsThirty-one participants of ARTISAN trial: 16 participants from ARTISAN group and 15 from ARTISAN plus group. OUTCOME MEASURES AND ANALYSIS: The study follows the consolidated criteria for reporting qualitative research. The framework analysis was used to synthesise the participants' experiences. The interviews were coded through NVivo 12.6.1.
resultsThree dominant and interrelated topics emerged from the interview data: (1) feelings about their shoulder rehabilitation outcome, (2) judgement of ARTISAN rehabilitation materials, (3) assessment of shoulder rehabilitation service provision.
conclusionBoth forms of intervention have some merit for some individuals. Thus, it may be appropriate to look at the patients' preference for offering treatment to them. Recognising and facilitating this will be of benefit to both the patients and healthcare as a whole.
