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

Joint position error (JPE) occurring with retraction and protrusion movements of the cervical spine remains uninvestigated. This study examined reliability and agreement of JPE measurement in the retraction-protrusion plane and the impact of sagittal displacement on rotation JPE estimates. In a single session repeated measurement study, JPE was assessed in 20 asymptomatic individuals following retraction, protrusion and axial rotation in retracted and protruded positions. Movements were measured three times using an electromagnetic tracking system. Constant, absolute and variable JPE was recorded for each movement relocation. Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC
