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

One of the most common causes of shoulder pain and restricted motion is frozen shoulder, or adhesive capsulitis, characterized by a thickened, contracted joint capsule with chronic inflammatory changes. Therefore, it is of interest to compare the outcomes of manipulation under anaesthesia (MUA) and intra-articular steroid injection in idiopathic adhesive capsulitis. A total of 60 patients were prospectively observed and treated at the Department of Orthopaedics, Calcutta National Medical College and Hospital, from April 2021 to September 2022. The mean time for resolution of symptoms was 11.30±0.41 weeks in the MUA group and 10.90±0.67 weeks in the steroid group, with a statistically significant difference (p=0.0073). Thus, MUA was found to be particularly effective for rapid functional restoration, providing quicker improvement in shoulder mobility and early pain relief.
