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

Adhesive capsulitis of shoulder (ACS) is a prevalent orthopedic disorder characterized by pain and restricted range of motion (ROM). The pathogenesis of ACS remains unclear and current treatments have limited efficacy in terms of long-term outcomes. Here, we synthesized antioxidant RuCo nanosheets (RuCo-NSs) for the treatment of ACS. The reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging ability and the effect of RuCo-NSs on the activation of mouse fibroblasts NIH3T3s were investigated. In addition, RuCo-NSs were administered to the mouse model of ACS through intra-articular injection into joint capsule. Results showed that RuCo-NSs could effectively scavenge ROS in both the acellular and intracellular environments with low toxicity. Moreover, RuCo-NSs significantly suppressed the proliferation, migration and fibrogenesis of NIH3T3 via modulating the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway. In addition, RuCo-NSs improved shoulder stiffness and inhibited capsular fibrosis in ACS mice. Our results suggest that the use of RuCo-NSs may be a potential therapy for ACS.
