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

Early identification of neurodevelopmental trajectories is essential for timely intervention in infancy. While joint mobility is often seen as an indicator of motor capacity, its link to early functional performance remains unclear. This study examined whether active shoulder range of motion and the quality of spontaneous movement quality relate to early upper limb function in infants under three months. Thirty-two healthy infants participated in a cross-sectional assessment. Video recordings analyzed with the General Movements Assessment classified movements as Fidgety or Writhing. Fine motor performance was evaluated using five items from the Denver II Screening Test. Active shoulder abduction was measured via two-dimensional frontal-plane analysis with Kinovea
