Perceptions of best practice, pain science and structure-focused education for rotator cuff-related shoulder pain: a content analysis of qualitative data from a randomised experiment.
Trial report in BMJ open, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesTo explore how people perceive different forms of education for rotator cuff-related shoulder pain in terms of words or feelings evoked by the education and treatments they feel are needed.
settingWe performed a content analysis of qualitative data collected in a randomised experiment.
participants2237 participants with rotator cuff-related shoulder pain were randomly assigned to receive three forms of education: PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOMES: After receiving the education, participants answered two questions regarding (1) words or feelings evoked by the education and (2) treatments they felt were needed.
results2232 responses for each question were analysed (99.7% response rate). Participants who received
conclusionParticipants with rotator cuff-related shoulder pain expressed generally similar emotional responses across groups, with small differences in treatment preferences favouring self-management in the TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: Australia New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry (ACTRN12623000197639).
